Abstract
The Alpha generation is a unique generation, born in the era of digital technology. From an early age, they have been in contact with information technology. Based on previous research, this generation spends a lot of time in front of screens and is fluent in using technological tools. There is a negative impact of using technology when it is not accompanied by character education. As they are the future generation of leaders, teachers and parents must take an approach based on the characteristics of the Alpha generation in parenting and teaching to develop leadership character. This research aims to examine the characteristics of the Alpha generation, character education for the Alpha generation, and parenting styles that are effective in preparing to be the digital leaders. The research method is a literature study. The results of the literature study show that the Alpha generation has great potential as digital leaders in a digital environment and character education in schools and parental care must adapt to the characteristics of the Alpha generation by providing examples, mentoring, and good relationships.
