Which is a leadership skill that relates to having a digital mindset?

Question

Options

• ALooking at the potential of new tools to meet customer needs
• BSharing success stories frequently to motivate others
• CBulking a rapport with regulators and government officials
• DMeasuring the success of strategic digital initiatives

• A
  91% (30)
• C
  6% (2)
• D
  3% (1)

Explanation

Option A is correct because a digital mindset means proactively exploring how emerging technologies and tools can create value - particularly for customers. Leaders with a digital mindset don't just use existing tools; they continuously scan for new possibilities and evaluate their potential impact.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• B (sharing success stories) is a general motivational/communication skill, not specific to digital thinking.
• C (building rapport with regulators) is a stakeholder relations skill, relevant in regulated industries but unrelated to digital orientation.
• D (measuring digital initiatives) is an analytical/accountability skill - valuable, but it's about evaluating what's already in motion, not the forward-looking curiosity that defines a digital mindset.

Memory tip: Think of "digital mindset" as curiosity + possibility - the key word in option A is "potential", which signals that forward-looking, opportunity-spotting orientation that separates digital thinkers from those who simply execute existing strategies.
