| Abstract: |
This article examines the role of digital skills in the health sector, where healthcare social workers perform their professional work, using the Delphi method in two rounds: 2020 (pre-Covid-19 context) and 2021 (Covid-19 context). Experts point out three major transformations in organisations resulting from digitalisation: (i) the growing importance of digital skills; (ii) the relevance of developing a leadership adapted to a digitalisated context, and (iii) the key role of health managers and their organisations. Based on the results obtained, a conceptual approach based on the Shaw et al. (2017) model is proposed to face the challenges of e-Health, explicitly centred on fostering both organisational and individual wellbeing. This leadership model aims to improve the wellbeing of workers in the healthcare sector, including healthcare social workers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
