Abstract
As the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) fuses the physical, digital, and biological worlds, complexity will drive change that makes team leadership a non-negotiable skill for 4IR leaders. Teams will become the central organizational reality, and will function to animate organizations. Leadership and teams of the 4IR are characterized as: Flat, nonhierarchical teams; multifunctional, specialized teams of leaders; teams at distributed, multi-organization workplaces; and teams as follower networks. One should not underestimate how the revolution impacts the worldview of leaders. It touches fundamental questions, from the principles that move the world to common views on ethics.
