    Intermedia Agenda-Setting at the Network Level: Turkish Women's Volleyball Team in Media and Instagram
    (Academic Conferences International Limited, 2025) Dilek Melike Ulucay; Gizem Melek; Uluçay, Dilek Melike; Melek, Gizem; S. Pinto
    McCombs (1992) highlighted the evolution of the agenda-setting concept which has expanded from public issues to encompass gender-related topics particularly in sports media. Research indicates that male athletes receive significantly more coverage than female athletes often portrayed in ways that emphasize power and dominance while female athletes are depicted through the lens of femininity and family life. This disparity influences audience perceptions of female athletes' importance. In Türkiye media coverage of female athletes is similarly limited with negative portrayals and objectification prevalent especially in football. However Turkish women's volleyball presents a notable exception as female athletes have surpassed male counterparts in elite competitions. Their achievements in 2023 gained significant attention from both national and international media (e.g. Anadolu Ajansı The New York Times). This study employs McCombs' agenda-setting theory to analyse the influence of Instagram on mainstream media coverage of the Turkish Women's Volleyball Team's triumphs in 2023. While traditional agenda-setting theory has demonstrated that media shapes public perceptions the rise of social media has altered this dynamic allowing citizens to influence mainstream narratives. Utilizing a network agenda-setting (NAS) framework the study will explore whether Instagram content about the volleyball team's success influenced mainstream media coverage or vice versa. The NAS model posits that media connects different issues in news stories as bundles transferring the salience of these bundled messages to the public. Given that Instagram boasts over 2 billion users globally including 58.7 million in Türkiye this study aims to assess the correlation between Instagram and traditional media agendas. It hypothesizes that mainstream media anticipates the public's Instagram agenda (Hypothesis 1) and that Instagram posts predict the content of newspapers (Hypothesis 2). © 2025 Elsevier B.V.

    The Role of Leadership in Digital Transformation: A Review and Suggestions for Future Research
    (Academic Conferences International Limited, 2021) Ozge Can
    Digital transformation (DT) through the advance and use of diverse digital technologies (e.g. big data business analytics mobile applications internet of things digital platforms) has assumed great importance for organizations. Digitalization efforts by organizations in different industries have become even more prominent by recent crises and disruptions such as the Covid-19 pandemic. Simultaneously digitalization also increase complexity for managers regarding the initiation of multiple changes in and around organizations including work processes working arrangements and stakeholder alignment. Despite these developments we have only limited knowledge about what role leaders play in these processes in generating positive impact including sustainable organizational performance enhanced innovation and creativity or industrial and social improvements. Although certain leadership concepts and approaches have been associated with DT so far no research has discussed these leadership orientations in a comprehensive manner or argued how they can be adopted by managers to connect digital capabilities to organizational value creation and strategic outcomes. Furthermore only a small number of studies have attempted to assess the leadership challenges relevant in DT processes and how these challenges can be managed or eliminated. To address these gaps through a review of the existing literature this study seeks to build an overall understanding of the impact of leadership on the success of complex digital transformations. A set of suggestions are made as possible avenues for future research clarifying the emergence of multiple and nuanced roles leaders play in DT and what new skills and responsibilities managers should assume in guiding the organization towards desired digitalization goals. © 2022 Elsevier B.V.
