Difficulties in applying this leadership style are typically due to our trainingwhere we are taught to be independent and defend our views to avoid ‘losing’ or being provedwrong. We can often engage others readily by showing sincere interest in their point of view,ensuring that clear communication of similarities and differences in viewpoint has taken place,and by involving them in planning and implementation of new initiatives or changes in direction.This interdependence culture develops

China's engineering standards and improvingthe internal system of engineering standardsInternationalizing China’s standards is important for shaping its national image, enhancing itsglobal discourse power, and enhancing China’s international prestige. Breaking the long-termmonopoly of the engineering standards market by European countries and the United Statesrequires the Chinese government to publicize China's engineering standards and engineeringculture at the national level. Although China has issued the Action Plan on Belt and RoadStandard Connectivity (2018-2020) twice, up to now the “going out” of Chinese standardshas been hampered by insufficient domestic preparation and international acclimatization.Therefore, the government needs to

The main challenge was management of student expectations. Studentsinitially demonstrated disappointment that they would not be able to directly apply skill sets tophysical equipment. The students soon saw; however, that the simulation software presentedmore of an opportunity to practice and grasp the key aspects of automation. The availability ofthe simulation software on the student’s PC provided more opportunities for them to practicetheir skill sets (e.g. EDS planning and implementation) as opposed to the hard-wired physicalunits, which have limited access even under normal (pre-pandemic

They deal with decisions made in previous years and with documentation developed byothers; conversely, their own documentation will become a reference for the team in the future.Students also learn and apply professional communication skills, communicating problems toappropriate teammates and navigating conflict. These skills are addressed in peer evaluations,with
