Supported by an environment that is increasingly immersed in digital transformation, universities are facing important organizational changes in both tangible and intangible structures. Digital transformation isn’t all about technology, there is a human side of the story. Leadership is seen as a key issue in any process of change. However, leaders of professional and knowledge-based institutions, like universities, face special demands. The present article aims to synthesize what has been investigated about leadership in the context of University 4.0. A systematic approach was adopted in conducting the literature review. The main body of the article focuses on illustrating five thematic clusters grounded in the literature and identifying co-citation network of each cluster using bibliometrics. Results demonstrate that this is an emerging theme. This paper is the first attempt to systematically review all research that so far has been made available in the broad field of leadership in University 4.0.

在日益融入数字化转型的环境的支持下，大学在有形和无形结构方面都面临着重要的组织变革。数字化转型不仅仅涉及技术，而且故事涉及人的一面。领导力被视为任何变革过程中的关键问题。但是，像大学这样的专业和以知识为基础的机构的领导者面临着特殊的要求。本文旨在综合研究大学4.0环境下有关领导力的内容。在进行文献综述时采用了系统的方法。本文的主体侧重于说明以文献为基础的五个主题类，并使用文献计量学来识别每个类的共引网络。结果表明，这是一个新兴主题。
