Abstract

Scholars are increasingly assessing virtual leadership in terms of whether this new way of leading is significantly different from the existing ways of leading or not, and if it is significantly different, what are the key dimensions to study. The current review on virtual leadership synthesizes the knowledge around the ADO-TCM (antecedents, decisions, outcomes, theories, contexts and methods) framework. Based on the previous studies, we provided further insights into the research gaps and the scope for future research. We adopted bibliometric analysis and framework-based systematic review to organize the existing literature on virtual leadership to create meaningful knowledge around virtual leadership. Apart from important bibliometrics, ADO-TCM framework-based SLR offers seven important themes catering to antecedents (2), decisions (3), outcomes (2), theories, contexts and methods. The current study is unique in the virtual leadership domain, wherein we have used the amalgamation of ADO and TCM frameworks to draw an enhanced understanding of virtual leadership.
