Active galactic nuclei are some of the most powerful sources in the cosmos and M81*, a nearby low-luminosity AGN, offers a unique window into their jet dynamics. In this thesis, we explore compelling evidence of jet precession and flaring variability in M81* using over 60 high-resolution VLBI observations (VLBA, EVN) and complementary multi-frequency monitoring with the Effelsberg radio telescope. Our analysis traces the jet's evolving orientation and disentangles its variability across time and frequency, providing new insights into AGN behavior in the sub-Eddington regime.
