Briggs Personality Type Inventory. While these two tools provide students with useful insights about their personalities, behaviours and habits of mind, our findings suggest that engineering educators who use these tools with their students would be well advised to discuss them as temporally-contextualized orientations rather than immutable categories. If they can critically examine these two typologies and expose students to multiple ways of influencing, supporting and relating to their colleagues, the next generation of engineers will learn the value and practice of flexibility while opening themselves to qualitatively diverse forms of professional development. 2) If it proves to be the case that female

. Support at that level made it a fundraising priority inthe college and the first course was offered within one year. That support was essential to theprogram’s development and implementation.Institutional mission and contextThe vision for this program is rooted in the Jesuit mission of the institution, which names “thedevelopment of leadership expressed in service to others…for the common benefit of the humancommunity” as one of its four pillars.[6] In addition, the charisms found in the Jesuit’s historyvalue educating the whole person – mind and heart. The call for the type of engineer and leaderthe university hopes to graduate is clear. As a result, the models of leadership chosen to guidethe program and student participants are rooted in this

management.   4  Leadership SkillsOur thinking about leadership skills follows the work of two teams of engineering leadershipresearchers. John Farr and his colleagues were the first to identify leadership qualities relevant toengineers. These include: big thinker, ethical and courageous, masters of change, risk taker,mission that matters, decision-maker, uses power wisely, team builder and good communicator35, 36 . While this list of competencies was developed with an audience of engineers in mind,Simon Pitts and his colleagues took their list a step further by generating it in collaboration withprofessional engineers working in industry.

Charlie by surprise: “When you first start, you think you can just go talk to whomever, which is the way it should be. [However] it was kind of eye-opening. You have to be a bit reserved sometimes as to who you talk to, about what.”This is an important change in outlook, and shows how an organization’s culture might influencethe perceptions and behaviours of early career engineers. As Charlie reflected: “It's very toughfor you to actually learn [if] you sit there and you're afraid to ask questions. Asking questions ishuge.” By putting doubt into his mind about which questions he could ask of whom caused himto reflect on whether his leadership behaviours were appropriate, arguably hindering hisdevelopment.
