В связи с растущей международной трудовой миграцией, динамичной цифровизацией организаций и проникновением генеративного искусственного интеллекта в бизнес-среду требования, предъявляемые к современным лидерам, стали более комплексными и многогранными. Несмотря на повышенные запросы к компетенциям менеджеров, знания о казахстанских бизнес-лидерах остаются недостаточными, а гендерные аспекты этого вопроса практически не изучены. Цель статьи – синтезировать новые знания о лидерстве и гендере в Казахстане посредством тщательного анализа существующих публикаций и формирования исследовательской повестки для будущих изысканий. В рамках данного исследовния проведен интегративный обзор литературы, основанный на методологических рекомендациях Р. Торакко и Дж. Каллахан. Scopus и Web of Science выступили базами данных для поиска подходящих публикаций до 2024 г. включительно. В результате определены три основные тематические области: стили лидерства, лидерские навыки, женщины и лидерство. Результаты обзора показали, что транзакционное и трансформационное лидерство – наиболее популярные стили среди казахстанских менеджеров. Исследования, посвященные женщинам-лидерам, сфокусированы на сфере высшего образования, повествуют о препятствиях для лидерства, продвижении по службе и стратегиях преодоления трудностей. В большинстве статей о стилях и навыках лидерства гендер не рассматривался и только в некоторых анализировался как контрольная переменная. Теоретическая значимость данной работы связана с предложенной исследовательской повесткой, важной для проведения последующих изысканий. Выявленная специфика лидерства казахстанских менеджеров может быть использована практиками для анализа и совершенствования их управленческих навыков.

The requirements for today’s leaders have become more comprehensive and multifaceted due to increasing international labor migration, dynamic organizations' digitalization, and penetration of generative artificial intelligence into a business environment. Despite the increased requirements for managers’ competencies, theoretical knowledge of Kazakhstani business leaders remains scarce, whereas the gender factor within this topicality is even more deficient. This paper aims to synthesize the new knowledge on leadership and gender in Kazakhstan through the sophisticated analysis of the existing publications and building the research agenda for future scholars. The integrative literature review grounded on R. Toracco’s and J. Callahan’s methodological guidelines was utilized for this research. The Scopus and Web of Science databases were used for searching the appropriate publications till 2024 inclusively. As a result three primary thematic areas: leadership styles, leadership skills, and women in leadership were identified. The review findings revealed that transactional and transformational leadership were the most popular styles among Kazakhstani managers. The research on women leaders is limited by female managers’ barriers, progression, and coping strategies in higher education. The majority of the existing articles about leadership styles and skills did not consider gender and only a few analyzed it as a control variable. The theoretical significance of this work relates to the research agenda elaborated for prospective study. The identified specificity of Kazakhstani managers’ leadership can be used by practitioners for the analysis and perfection of their leading function.
