ENABLING THE CANADIAN ENGINEERING GRAND CHALLENGES (CEGCS) FOR EDUCATORS Engineering Leadership - Introduction
OUTLINE CEGC and the Role of the Engineer Engineering Leadership Overview Engineering Leadership Skills Engineering Leadership Domains of Influence Summary
CEGC AND THE ROLE OF THE ENGINEER The CEGC are complex sociotechnical challenges. To design and develop sustainable solutions to the CEGCs, engineers must embrace the concept that their role goes beyond creating technical solutions.
CEGC AND THE ROLE OF THE ENGINEER Engineering is a sociotechnical practice Requires a leadership mindset Requires intentional development of transdisciplinary skills Combines leadership capabilities, management capacity Includes ability to develop and communicate sustainable solutions with both technical and non-technical communities.
ENGINEERING LEADERSHIP OVERVIEW WHAT IS LEADERSHIP? Leadership is a process of influencing others to reach a common positive goal.1
6 POLL QUESTION? Poll Do you think of Engineering as a Leadership Profession?
ENGINEERING LEADERSHIP OVERVIEW INTERESTING OBSERVATION Thirty-four of the top 100 CEOs in 2018 had an engineering degree. 1 Harvard Business Review, Oct. 22, 2018 Furthermore: 26.4 percent of the CEO s on the S&P 500 and Fortune 500 had engineering degrees 1https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2018/10/22/more-top-performing-ceos-now-have-engineering-degrees-than-mbas/
ENGINEERING LEADERSHIP OVERVIEW Engineering is a Leadership Profession Obligated to guide the technology we create Integrate solutions into society in a positive and sustainable manner Engineering has diverse career pathways
ENGINEERING LEADERSHIP OVERVIEW1 Engineering leadership has been defined in many ways, and often include the technical nature of the engineer s role and responsibilities, contextualized to engineering practice. 1 R. L. D. Komarek, In search of a definition and frameworks for engineering leadership development, New Directions in Student Leadership, vol. 2022, no. 173, pp. 33 41, Mar. 2022, doi: 10.1002/yd.20477.
ENGINEERING LEADERSHIP OVERVIEW1 Engineers do not approach leadership as position but rather approach as a process with a need to develop the underlying skills the enable leadership, followership and working with team members and society in a multidisciplinary context. 1 R. L. D. Komarek, In search of a definition and frameworks for engineering leadership development, New Directions in Student Leadership, vol. 2022, no. 173, pp. 33 41, Mar. 2022, doi: 10.1002/yd.20477.
ENGINEERING LEADERSHIP OVERVIEW SAMPLE DEFINITIONS Engineering leadership consists of capabilities and values that transform technical people from individual contributors into those who can lead teams to deliver a complex multi-disciplinary product.2 [2] MIT. Bernard M Gordon MIT Engineering Leadership Program. https://gelp.mit.edu/, accessed January 21, 2023
ENGINEERING LEADERSHIP OVERVIEW SAMPLE DEFINITIONS Through engineering leadership, individuals and groups implement transformative change and innovation to positively influence technologies, organizations, communities, society, and the world at large.3 3Paul, R., Sen, A. , and Wyatt, E., What is engineering leadership? A proposed definition. ASEE Conference Proceedings, 2018.
ENGINEERING LEADERSHIP SKILLS The development of leadership skills in the context of teamwork is a requirement of Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB).4 Some leadership skills intersect with management skills. Important to differentiate leadership and management roles and skills. To become a competent and effective engineer, it is important to value and intentionally develop leadership skills. 4CEAB. 2020 accreditation criteria and procedures. Engineers Canada, 2020.
ENGINEERING LEADERSHIP SKILLS INTERSECTION WITH MANAGEMENT SKILLS5 [5] Curriculum, Proceedings of the Canadian Engineering Education Association (CEEA), Jun. 2020, doi: 10.24908/pceea.vi0.14129. M. Jamieson and J. Donald, Building the Engineering Mindset: Developing Leadership and Management Competencies in the Engineering
ENGINEERING LEADERSHIP DOMAINS OF INFLUENCE Society Organization Leadership skills applied in a variety of leadership domains of influence Scale & scope increase from self, to team, to organization, to society. Influence grows as an individual develops skills in each domains. Team Self Leadership Domains of Influence5 5M. Jamieson & J. Donald, Building the Engineering Mindset: Developing Leadership and Management Competencies in the Engineering Curriculum, Proceedings of the Canadian Engineering Education Association (CEEA), Jun. 2020, doi: 10.24908/pceea.vi0.14129.
ENGINEERING LEADERSHIP DOMAINS OF INFLUENCE Self-regulation, knowing yourself and personal values to you can lead authentically. Self Leadership Working with others to develop shared values, learning to ask powerful questions, and connecting different leadership identities. Team Leadership Organizational Leadership Creating a vision and aligning vision, mission and values. Working with complexity, interdisciplinary thinking and cultural competence. Societal Leadership
SUMMARY CEGCs are complex sociotechnical challenges. Engineering is a Sociotechnical Leadership profession. Requires the development of leadership skills across domains of increasing scope and complexity: self, team, organization, society. Example skills include: self-regulation, value development, creating vision and interdisciplinary thinking. Must value and intentionally develop our non-technical leadership skills.
REFLECTION ACTIVITIES Reflect on any of the following questions: What is your definition of engineering leadership? In what ways do you feel engineers need to demonstrate leadership? Which leadership skills are key to successful engineering practice? How might engineering leadership skill requirements change as you develop through the four Leadership Domains of influence?
