1 INTRODUCTION
The global shift towards digitalization is reflected in
the intersection of AI and HRM. HR departments can
handle enormous amounts of data, make data-driven
choices, and automate repetitive tasks with the help
of AI-powered tools and algorithms (Cui et al., 2021).
These adjustments enhance HR operations and free
up HR specialists to focus on strategic objectives like
employee engagement and talent development.
Businesses are aware that developing a dynamic and
adaptable workforce requires strong leadership. HRM
leadership includes a variety of approaches and
strategies. Traditionally, decision-making has been
done in a top-down, hierarchical manner. AI causes a
paradigm shift by giving HR professionals new tools
and insights to alter their leadership philosophies. AI
in HRM calls for more than simply better technology;
it calls for a fundamental rethinking of leadership
paradigms (Jia et al., 2024). The research looks at the
relationships between employee engagement, HRM
leadership styles, and AI. In today's HR debate,
employee engagement is essential to productivity, job
satisfaction, retention, and organizational
effectiveness. We examine the ways in which
technologies driven by AI, including intelligent
assistants, chatbots, and automated forecasting, are
altering HR leadership methodologies (Al Kohji et
al., 2024). It aims to ascertain whether these
technologies foster teamwork, flexibility, and
employee-centered leadership or if they contribute to
problems with the human-machine interaction.
To comprehend these complexities, the research
will involve questionnaires, interviews, and a
thorough literature review. The study will investigate
how HR directors respond to AI-driven
advancements and how these adjustments affect
employee engagement using both quantitative and
qualitative data. In addition to contributing to AI and
HRM research, this study will offer useful guidance
for CEOs, legislators, and HR professionals (Hidayat
et al., 2024). As a result, AI in HRM is changing the
definition of leadership and requiring a shift from
outdated ideas to one that is more employee-centric
and technologically informed. This study looks at
how employee engagement and leadership styles are
impacted by this shift. By empowering and involving
workers, an understanding of the relationship
between AI and leadership may help businesses thrive
in the digital era.

2 PROPOSED METHODOLOGY
With a focus on how each affects employee
engagement, we apply a mixed-method research
approach in this study to examine the complex
relationship between AI and leadership philosophies
in the context of human resource management (HRM)
(Dillianti et al., 2024). Using this approach to
combine quantitative and qualitative data has
advantages, but there are drawbacks and potential
limitations as well (Masaeid & Upadhyay, 2023). The
quantitative portion involves distributing
questionnaires to employees and human resources
specialists at different businesses. A Likert scale,
which is frequently employed in survey research, can
be used to quantify answers to questions about the
usage of AI in HRM. When applied to the
relationships outlined by the following equations,
multiple linear regression models, which presume
linear relationships between variables, may
oversimplify the intricate dynamics at work (Saide et
al., 2024). Furthermore, it's possible that not all of the
nuances of AI adoption within HRM were covered by
the Likert scale utilized for integration (Saputra,
2023). Although leadership style change and
employee engagement (EE) are clearly significant,
they are also intricate concepts that defy easy
quantification. Semi-structured interviews offer a
detailed analysis of respondents' lived experiences,
making them potentially a treasure trove of
qualitative data. Nonetheless, the process of
qualitative analysis, particularly theme analysis, is
ingrained with and dependent upon the interpretation
of researchers (Marinova-Stoyanova, 2023).
The creation of thematic maps and coding
categories could introduce bias into the study process
and fail to fully represent the diversity of viewpoints
(Xiang, 2023). To investigate these two hypotheses,
this study proposes a positive, one-way relationship
between AI integration and leadership style change,
and AI integration and EE (Biggadike et al., 2022).
The oversimplification may cause significant
subtleties in the relationships under study to be
overlooked. Although data anonymization and
informed consent are essential, it's vital to consider
the potential for participant coercion or reluctance to
provide candid responses, especially within
organizations (Santos et al., 2021). In conclusion, it is
critical to recognize the limitations and potential
biases in both quantitative and qualitative techniques,
even if the mixed-method study methodology
provides a comprehensive examination of AI's
influence on HR leadership styles and employee
engagement (Priya et al., 2024). It is necessary to be
aware of these limitations and use a critical lens to the
study findings in order to comprehend the complex
link that exists between AI, HRM leadership, and
employee engagement.
3 RESULT AND DISCUSSIONS
The measurement outcomes characteristic statistics, a
poll of employees and HR professionals, examined
the effects of AI integration on employee engagement
and leadership style change. Managing human
resources with artificial intelligence, users were asked
to rate the degree to which AI is now utilized in
human resource management using a point rating
system (Wardoyo & Dewi, 2023). With a mean value
on the AI integration indicator, overall AI integration
was minimal (Yadav & Bhatia, 2022). Analysis of
regression through the use of multi-linear regression
analysis, the interaction between AI Integration,
leadership style change, and EE was examined.

Integration and Leader style change .As they become
more accustomed to AI's position in HRM, human
resources leaders are refining their management
strategies. This supports the null hypothesis,
according to which AI Integration has no effect on
Leader style change .The model of employee
engagement AI Integration and employee
engagement show a comparable association discover
that EE increases in proportion to the degree of AI
integration, supporting hypothesis which holds that
AI integration benefits employee engagement.
4 LEADERSHIP STYLES
Results qualitative examining similarities or thematic
analysis to sort through the findings of semi-
structured interviews with managers, employees, and
HR specialists, researchers employed theme analysis.
Several themes have come up repeatedly: A flexible
approach to leadership: HR managers are adapting
their leadership styles to fully utilize AI's promise.
The Situational Leadership Model is frequently used
to describe how successful leaders adjust their tactics
based on the readiness and proficiency of their teams.
Employee Empowerment HR directors can focus on
empowering employees by delegating tedious tasks to
machines through AI integration. This notion is in
line with emphasizes having faith in people's inherent
motivation Improve Communication: Chatbots and

virtual assistants make it possible, underscoring the
need of Communication Model between employees
and human resources. Result illustration the
quantitative results validate that AI Integration has a
positive effect on both leadership style change and
employee engagement as anticipated by the study
hypotheses. The coefficients demonstrate the impact
of AI integration on HR management and employee
morale due to their statistical significance. The
qualitative results underline the revolutionary
potential of AI in line with the quantitative statistics.
Human resources managers are embracing more
flexible leadership techniques, increasing
communication, and empowering employees in ways
that are more similar to and the situational leadership
model. The findings show that instead of worrying
that AI could totally upend the sector, firms are
adjusting to the evolving AI environment by viewing
AI as a tool to enhance HRM. It is evident from
combining the quantitative and qualitative results
how useful AI can be as a tool to improve HR
leadership and, consequently, employee engagement.
In conclusion, the data demonstrate that integration
significantly and favorably affects staff engagement
and leadership changes linked to HRM. The study
connects the theoretical underpinnings of Theory Y
and the Situational Leadership Model with the real-
world applications for HR professionals and
companies looking to maximize HRM through
artificial intelligence.
It's crucial to remember that self-report data has
limitations and that actual AI integration scenarios
may be more challenging than initially thought.
Researchers must delve further into the mechanisms
at work to completely comprehend how AI affects
leadership and employee engagement.
5 HRM LEADERSHIP
The results of this study offer significant new insights
into how AI affects HRM leadership philosophies
and, consequently, workforce engagement. The
discussion in this part examines the significance of
these findings for academic and applied HRM
environments .Connecting theory and practice: The
results of this study provide light on how HRM is
evolving in the age of AI and offer empirical evidence
in favor of the theoretical foundations of employee
motivation and leadership. This study demonstrates
how AI integration encourages HR executives to use
the Situational Leadership Model, which was
recommended to adopt adaptive leadership styles that
consider the readiness and proficiency of their teams.
Additionally, because it emphasizes trust in
employees' innate motivation, it aligns with theory
optimizing human resource management one of the
primary contributions of the research is the useful
implications it has for HR professionals and company
executives. The positive effects of A Integration on
LS_Change and EE are illustrated in this study, which
helps HR professionals who wish to employ AI as a
strategic tool. Managers of human resources may
view AI's potential as a tool to support more flexible
leadership rather than as a challenge to the status quo.
The findings show that human resource
professionals must reconsider leadership paradigms
in the digital age, placing more of an emphasis on
employee empowerment and communication
enhancement through the use of AI-driven
technology such as chat bots and virtual assistants.
6 EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT
The increasing worker dedication AI integration has
been scientifically linked to employee engagement,
one of the key ideas in contemporary HRM. This
illustrates how AI has the revolutionary potential to
increase worker participation. AI in HR management
may increase worker satisfaction, productivity, and
loyalty for employers. Consequently, our findings
offer a roadmap for HR managers who wish to
increase their organization's competitive edge by
developing a motivated and capable workforce.
Future research and its practical implications
although this study establishes the framework for
investigating the relationships among AI, HR
administration, and employee engagement, it is
important to recognize its limits. Future research
should concentrate on the nuanced ways that AI
influences employee engagement and leadership
styles. Examining these relationships over time could
shed light on how they evolve as AI advances. The
results of research have the power to motivate
significant, real change. Businesses that have
implemented AI solutions for HRM may utilize these
findings to justify their expenditures. Artificial
intelligence (AI) solutions can be used by human
resources managers to increase administrative
operations' efficiency and promote dynamic
leadership and employee engagement. The reader
benefits those who read this research paper will
benefit in a number of ways. The making informed
decisions: government regulators, corporate leaders,
and human resource managers can now decide how
best to integrate AI into HRM. They study in-depth
