AbstractThe concept of Aboriginal leadership often results in debate. The fundamental question raised is if Australian Aboriginal people are equal members of a pluralistic society that is based on co-operation and consensuses then how can you have a leader? Consequently who determines leadership or is a leader someone that in effect is more equal than others? Is leadership an attribute gained from within Aboriginal society or is leadership as we currently define it taught within the education structures of settler society? This paper briefly examines leadership from a postcolonial contemporary Aboriginal position, reviewing existing leadership education programs.

The arts involve engaging the human imagination and sensory skills to communicate and create experiences, artifacts, and surroundings shared with others. Conventionally, education providers have compartmentalized the arts and sciences as separate and disparate disciplines. Yet, the future of work will continue to demand that organizations and their members remain agile, creative, and innovative in the face of ongoing uncertainty and change. As a result, leadership paradigms and models have been changing from top-down, command and control to relational, participative standards due to the need for collaborative expertise and organizational agility. This chapter will address the skills required for relational leaders and learning organizations, how higher education programs must model the way, and how integrating the arts within other disciplines could answer the call for deeper learning and collaborative engagement in the 21st century.

Abstract – Academics, industry professionals, and policy makers across North America have shown increasing interest in the topic of engineering leadership.  The demand from industries for engineers with diversified skills in a hypercompetitive market as well as the need to produce engineers attuned to the challenges of globalization are pushing universities to invest in engineering leadership education programs. In this context, this article engages with the following two questions: How have scholars addressed the concept of engineering leadership over the past decade? And how could the field of engineering leadership be constructively pursued in the future? The goal of this article is to map the structure of this nascent field by analyzing its scope, geography of application, methodology, relations, contradictions, gaps, and inconsistencies in the literature.  By doing so, we explore reasons for the field’s structural particularities while also considering new avenues for future studies. We offer some tentative conclusions: articles predominantly presented the results of a pilot program or the outcomes of integration of leadership topics into current courses but in the process the concept of engineering leadership is seldom understood in a situated manner within wider shifts in economy and society. This points to a potential avenue for further research that incorporates a macro level of analysis that adopts a multi-dimensional view of leadership engineering.

Societal expectations of twenty-first century engineers have dramatically changed over the past few decades. There is a need to educate engineers not just in technical subjects, but also in many non-technical areas including globalization, communication, and leadership. There has been a growth of engineering leadership education programs offered by postsecondary engineering institutions. The effectiveness of these programs is often measured by the student’s acquisition of skills, without considering the benefit of these skills on the students’ careers. Using the career success competencies model, this paper seeks to determine if engineering leadership education impacts career success. The analysis showed a high amount of correlation with engineering leadership capabilities, indicating a positive relationship between engineering leadership education and career success. The most significant competencies related to an engineer’s career success were career insight, proactive personality, openness to experience, and lifelong learning
