ABSTRACT

This paper explores the integration and application of transformational leadership and innovation strategies in the realm of engineering management. It begins by examining the current challenges faced by engineering management, highlighting the limitations of traditional management approaches, and underscoring the pivotal role of transformational leadership in achieving successful engineering projects. Building upon this, a theoretical framework for transformational leadership is established, delving into its core components, models, and its interplay with organizational culture, complemented by real-world examples showcasing its specific applications in engineering projects. In parallel, the paper investigates the theory and practice of innovation strategies, encompassing the definition of innovation, its foundational elements, and how it integrates with engineering management, supported by case studies that illustrate the outcomes of innovation strategies in engineering projects. Additionally, the paper discusses an integrated model of transformational leadership and innovation strategies, analyzing their application within engineering management, and presenting successful case examples. Ultimately, the paper identifies potential challenges in the implementation of transformational leadership and innovation strategies and suggests corresponding solutions. The research outcomes of this paper offer theoretical backing and practical advice for engineering management practices, aiming to enhance the management efficiency and innovation capabilities of engineering projects.
