Abstract

This is a workshop proposal, submitted by Dr. Jannik Eikenaar and Dr. Alon Eisenstein. In this session, participants will be introduced (or re-introduced) to several concepts of engineering leadership, apply those concepts through a case study, and then discuss their different applications. Participants will be exposed to the diversity of thought around inclusive leadership in engineering, and they will develop, re-think, and reinforce their approaches to teaching inclusive leadership.

Objectives/Learning Outcomes Increase familiarity with and understanding of models, frameworks, and theories of leadership in engineering contexts Practice applying leadership concepts Engage with others teaching similar content Reflect on theory-based approaches to teaching inclusive leadership

Targeted audience Educators familiar with and new to teaching theory-based inclusive engineering leadership

Activities Learn or review leadership concepts, including leadership models (e.g., transformational, transactional), leadership frameworks (e.g., positivist, social constructivist), and engineering leadership orientations (e.g., technical mastery, organizational innovation) Apply concepts through a case study Discuss varying applications and connect to participants’ teaching practices and contexts

Length 90 minutes

Supplies Handout, suggested readings

Modality: in-person, online, hybrid This workshop can be delivered in a hybrid mode: Part 1 is a review of concepts: this can be delivered simultaneously in-person and online Part 2 is a small-group exercise: in-person and online participants can participate with those joining in the same mode Part 3 is a group discussion and reflection: all participants can engage and contribute

We have delivered this workshop in an online format, and we regularly teach in hybrid modes; we are prepared to facilitate every part of the hybrid workshop.
