“…With the HWC, Xie et al (2019) introduced a modern and powerful instrument to assess hybrid work characteristics, which allows to detect and depict the fast-paced changes in our everyday working lives. Especially in Germany, a highly digitalized country (Kauffeld & Maier, 2020; Schlicher et al, 2020) and also in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused an abrupt change of working conditions (Diab-Bahman & Al-Enzi, 2020), such a measure which takes factors into account that were overseen in the past was strongly needed and is now presented through our German version of the HWC. HWCs are associated with occupational commitment and well-being, which makes them critical factors in work design.…”

“…They propose a scale measuring HWC, which enables an investigation of current workplaces and helps to derive recommendations concerning work design. In Germany, a scale measuring HWC is especially much needed, as the everyday working life of many employees in Germany is characterized by fast-paced changes due to digitalization (Kauffeld & Maier, 2020; Schlicher et al, 2020). Therefore, the aim of this study was to validate a German version of the HWC scale (Xie et al, 2019).…”

Abstract. Introduction: To account for fast-paced developments at work, hybrid work characteristics (HWCs) were introduced. To measure them, an English instrument was developed by Xie et al. (2019) . HWCs encompass more than one work characteristics domain such as the task, social, or contextual domain and include boundarylessness, multitasking, the demand for constant learning, and non-work-related interruptions and are associated with employee attitudes and well-being. Objectives: We validated a German translation of the HWC scale. Method: Using employee samples from Germany ( N = 391) and the United Kingdom ( N = 400), we assessed the quality of the German translation. Results: The German version was internally consistent, showed an acceptable model fit, and reached a scalar level of measurement invariance. The HWCs are related to employee attitudes and well-being. Conclusion: We recommend the use of the German translation of the HWC scale, as our results support its reliability and validity.

“…Digitalization, in the sense of the increasing implementation of intelligent and interconnected technology, does not only change production lines and work equipment. Digitalization also, and maybe even more importantly, changes organizational structure, tasks, and requirements of work (Kauffeld and Maier 2020;Mlekus and Maier 2019). Some examples for these technologies are intelligent robots that work hand in hand with employees (Ötting et al 2020), or intelligent algorithms in software applications that make decisions about applicant selection or shift scheduling (Ötting and Maier 2018b;Schlicker et al 2020).…”

This paper in the Journal Gruppe. Interaktion. Organisation. (GIO) addresses changes in leadership through digitalization and their consequences for leaders. For years, digitalization has been heralding changes such as increasing leadership at a distance or use of digital communication media. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) now face the task of coping with these changes and have to contend with major uncertainties: What are major determining trends for leaders in SMEs? Which changes will shape leadership and how will they change leadership tasks and success-critical behavior? In semi-structured interviews with seven experts from SMEs we have explored these questions. Trends expected by the experts describe changes in the organizational structures and in work within the company. Structurally, companies will become more agile and diverse, hierarchies will play a less strong role and companies will cooperate more closely with each other. Work will become more location-independent, more influenced by Big Data and many tasks will be made easier or taken over by technology. In relation to established models of leadership tasks and behavior, the experts see a clear shift in tasks in favor of managing human resources, including the development of employees through coaching and the transfer of responsibility. In addition to previous tasks, the experts see managing change as a new task area. This area consists of accompanying change, acting flexibly and agilely, communicating openly and transparently and allowing failure. With regard to changes in success-critical behavior, leaders have to show more strategy orientation, communicate clearly and be open to new ideas and further development.

“…Die Digitalisierung bestimmt zunehmend unsere Lebenswelt und schreitet mit rasanter Geschwindigkeit voran (Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Klimaschutz [BMWK], 2022a). Sie verändert unsere Freizeit, das soziale Miteinander, das Gesundheits-und Bildungswesen, wie auch die Arbeit und erschafft damit eine neue Lebenswelt (Kauffeld & Maier, 2020). Digitalisierung bedeutet im technischen Kontext vor allem Automatisierung, Robotisierung, Virtualisierung und Vernetzung (Ternès, 2018).…”

Der Aufsatz stellt ein pädagogisches Instrument für die Vermittlung von Digitalkompetenzen vor: Das Reallabor. Darunter verstehen die Autor*innen einen pädagogischen Ansatz, der einen physischen Ort mit Technologien verbindet, um mit Menschen aus marginalisierten Zielgruppen gemeinsam Digitalkompetenzen zu erwerben. Es werden vier Beispiele für Reallabore in Werkstätten für Menschen mit Behinderungen vorgestellt und diskutiert. Dabei wurde zum Beispiel ein Internet-Café in einer Cafeteria eingerichtet oder ein ehemaliger Postraum zu einem kleinen Makerspace umgewandelt. Aus diesen vier Fallstudien leiten die Autor*innen ab, welche Kompetenzanforderungen pädagogische Fachkräfte für die Nutzung des Reallabor-Ansatzes benötigen und wie sich pädagogische Rollen dazu wandeln müssen. Abstract The paper presents a pedagogical tool for teaching digital literacy: The RealLab. By this, the authors mean a pedagogical approach that combines a physical space with technologies in order to acquire digital skills together with people from marginalised target groups. Four examples of RealLab in workshops for people with disabilities are presented and discussed. For example, an internet café was set up in a cafeteria or a former mail room was converted into a small makerspace. From these four case studies, the authors derive which compe-tence requirements pedagogical professionals need for the use of the reallaboratory ap-proach and how pedagogical roles need to change for this purpose.
