Abstract 

Knowledge management is a phenomenon observed in the pandemic, although focused on the translation of experiences, knowledge and skills. The objective of the study was to explore the dimensions of leadership in the context of the pandemic. An exploratory, cross-sectional and psychometric study was carried out with a sample of 457 students from a public university in central Mexico. The results show a structure of three factors that explained 54% of the variance, but the literature suggests the inclusion of a fourth and fifth factor to explain the emergence of a transformative leadership: opportunistic, entrepreneurial and innovative as COVID-19 intensifies. In relation to the state of the art, it is proposed to extend the model in order to be able to explain the impact of the corona virus on the management of knowledge in the virtual classroom.
