AB  - This paper examines how engineering leadership is understood and recognized within the specific context of engineering consulting. Engineering consulting has consistently grown over the last couple of decades in both the United States and globally. Additionally, engineering consulting is a type of Professional Service Firm (PSF), which is recognised to have organizationally distinct characteristics differing from traditional, hierarchical bureaucratic firms. These unique characteristics have implications for leadership. In this paper, we examine engineering leadership within engineering consulting through a qualitative case study on one mid-size North American engineering consulting firm.  Preliminary findings from a subset of our interviews with engineering consultants across various career stages are presented. This work aligns with ASEE LEAD division’s strategic initiative “Explore” as it contributes to understanding how engineering leadership is understood in professional practice. This work is also particularly relevant to knowledge-intensive, high-autonomy work environments.
