the solution in some cases.Further integration of expertise from other disciplines might improve this.The importance of creating effective, psychologically safe teams to be successful in anyendeavour has been a common theme in leadership literature and a common focus of engineeringleadership research [36]. As students tackle increasingly complex problems, the ambiguity of thechallenges makes framing and scoping critical, and team members must work hard to collaboratein the face of uncertainty. Further, splitting the work up as a team is not an option, as the systemsthemselves - and the tools used to illustrate them - are interconnected. Instruction in systemsmapping processes and tools can help students to facilitate that collaboration

withhigh levels of leadership and professional skills [3]–[5]. Historically, leadership and professionalskills have been referred to as “soft skills” indicating lesser importance than the “hard” ortechnical skills typically associated with engineering. Leadership development was often pushedto the margins of engineering education using an end-of-program project or a few electivecourses to fulfill the requirements [6], [7]. However, recent work explores the potential andsuccess of integrating leadership and professional development into the technical aspects ofengineering education. This literature indicates that out-of-class activities such as summerinternships or research experiences (e.g., REU programs) can be beneficial in furthering

leadership that areunderexplored in research and practice. While leadership is recognized as an integral part ofengineering and engineering education, there are nuances of leadership that are unique tomarginalized groups in engineering, such as Black engineers. Studies regarding engineeringleadership often highlight the importance of technical competency and social or professionalskills related to effective engineering leadership [3]–[5]. These skills are closely connected to anengineer's various funds of identity in where, how, and who they interact with in leadership.However, for the early-career Black engineers in this study, these aspects of their identity andleadership are only recognized and appreciated in specific spaces in engineering.
