The article discusses various approaches to management processes in the era of digital transformation. Digital challenges in the post-pandemic period have updated new qualification requirements for the higher education system. The transition to distance forms of work, which demonstrated inconsistency in providing quality education, revealed the main problems beginning from a weak infrastructure to the lack of optimal ways of educational activity. The higher education system requires transformation to become competitive in the digital environment and be flexible in assimilating technological innovations. The paper presents the analysis of the main directions of digitalization of higher education with the determined priorities. The study is designed on the methods of bibliometric analysis — counting of the number of publications on a given topic, their content and thesaurus analyses. There were used the built-in tools for analyzing the national bibliographic database of scientific citations and closed systems for searching and machine analysis of large texts of the abstract-analytical system Dimensions.ai. The VOSviewer application was used for the content analysis of the terms, and the resources wordstat.ru and google.trends.com were used to calculate the statistics of requests of the key concepts. The results of the analysis identified a variety of transformational decisions that can be made only at the level of strategic management. System transformations may depend on the given external or internal framework regulated by different subjects of the educational process. The directions of development in the field of digital transformation also depend on the external and internal framework. The article proposes the use of the collegial management format which changes the scheme of interaction between the subjects of education.

Digital transformation has emerged as a pervasive force in today’s rapidly evolving world, touching almost every sector and industry. In the higher education sector, in which education, research, and knowledge dissemination hold paramount significance for society, the notion of digital transformation per se becomes particularly important. This paper focuses specifically on higher education, acknowledging that it exists in a broader environment. In this work, qualitative methods were applied to explore the meaning and scope of digital transformation in higher education institutions. The systematic literature review formed the basis for in-depth interviews with experts in the discipline to explore the meaning and scope of digital transformation in higher education institutions. Then, for the purpose of preparing the case study, the concepts that emerged from the systematic literature review and interviews with experts were grouped together through a keyword-based pattern. Lastly, a case study was conducted at a Greek university with the aim of better understanding the way in which university members of a particular higher education institution perceive the meaning and scope of digital transformation. Our analysis provides valuable insights into higher education institutions for decision-makers and those involved in digital transformation initiatives, offering a comprehensive definition of digital transformation in higher education institutions. Finally, this paper can also serve as a basis for researchers who are interested in defining the meaning and scope of digital transformation in their own research fields.
