Module Dilemma: I don’t have the leadership skills and confidence to facilitate my group.
Module Objective: Understand how to exercise multi-partiality and practice leadership in digital environments.
Research shows that many digital community stewards are accidental leaders. They had little idea how the leadership of their group would unfold when they took on the role. The job is complex and time-consuming and can impose intense pressures for which many leaders are not trained or prepared. For all the focus on leadership in contemporary society, online leadership is an emerging phenomenon that has not yet been well studied or understood.

- Understand the characteristics and responsibilities of a digital leader.
- Understand the importance of active participation for efficient digital leadership.
