The impact of artificial intelligence on the development of women's leadership in the context of digitalization of public administration

Abstract

The article explores the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies on the advancement of women's leadership within the digitalization process of Kazakhstan’s public administration system.

The main goal of the analysis is to determine the influence of artificial intelligence on the development of women’s leadership in public administration by identifying the relationship between the level of digitalization of management processes and the proportion of women in leadership positions.

The authors examined institutional and technological factors shaping the development of digital leadership, as well as the role of AI in reducing gender stereotypes and improving the quality of managerial decision-making.

A correlation-regression analysis conducted to assess the relationship between the increase in the number of women in leadership positions and the level of digital maturity (EGDI) revealed a statistically significant positive dependence (r = +0.99, R² = 0.97).

Special attention is given to both Kazakhstani and international initiatives aimed at integrating a gender component into digital strategies (Women in AI & GovTech, AI Federal Leadership Series, Women in Digital Forum).
