The global economy is undergoing two major transformations simultaneously: the rapid expansion of digital technologies and the growing demand for sustainable development. At the center of this shift is the creative economy, a sector driven by innovation, knowledge, culture, and human creativity. As organizations increasingly adopt technologies such as artificial intelligence and blockchain, they are also facing rising pressure to align these innovations with Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) priorities. This convergence is reshaping how businesses approach leadership, strategy, and long-term value creation in a digitally connected world. As a result, there is a growing need to better understand how emerging technologies and sustainability goals can be integrated in ways that are both innovative and socially responsible. Reengineering Strategic Leadership for the Creative Economy in the ESG-Digital Nexus examines how emerging technologies and sustainability priorities are reshaping leadership, innovation, and value creation within the global creative economy. By reexamining the role of the leader not just as a manager of resources, but as an architect of a sustainable, digitally fluent future, this book redefines what it means to lead in the age of the creative economy. Covering topics such as strategic foresight in a VUCA economy, ESG-oriented generative AI ecosystems, and synthetic creativity governance, this book is an excellent academic resource for graduate and doctoral students, business leaders, entrepreneurs, strategic managers, technology consultants, digital strategists, policymakers, and more.
