Metacognition, or having an awareness of one's thought processes, is an integral part of learning. Fostering metacognitive abilities enhances self-awareness and the ability of learners to engage with complexity. Metacognition underscores all aspects of leadership learning, including knowledge, development, training, observation, and engagement. Educators develop metacognitive abilities through explicitly teaching metacognitive skills, scaffolding learning, and engaging critical perspectives. As leadership educators develop metacognitive abilities and incorporate learning about metacognition in curricular and co-curricular settings, the field of leadership education amplifies opportunities for learners to facilitate positive and sustainable change.

This article provides an overview of the leadership learning framework (LLF) and insight into how this framework was developed. The shift from focusing on teaching to the learning of leadership to developing programs in both curricular and co-curricular spaces is amplified in this model. The six aspects of the LLF are discussed using a steering wheel as a metaphor. The article also shares how LLF has been applied in various ways to continue to reflect the evolving landscape of leadership education.

This article looks to explore four emergent themes from this special issue focused on the leadership learning framework: culturally relevant and socially just leadership foundations, intentional and unintentional leadership learning and socialization, the interconnectedness of each aspect of the leadership learning framework and using the theory-to-practice-to-theory approach to enhance model development. The article concludes with future directions, including the critical advancement of the entire leadership learning framework, by positing questions about each aspect of the framework.

The term leadership development is often used in the field of education, management, and business, yet in the context of the leadership learning framework (LLF), it takes on a specific meaning as the innermost, human facets of leadership learning. In addition to the current scholarship around leadership development as a key component of leadership learning, this article will explore leadership development's evolution-from its interconnection with leader development, the use of training and education to foster it, to its growth self-awareness within group dynamics. This evolution will be considered in the contexts of both education and organizations. Finally, questions and recommendations for future scholarship in leadership are posed for both researchers and practitioners.

This article highlights data collected using the leadership learning framework as learning content for an undergraduate class and a reflective tool for students to self-identify ways leadership learning occurred. In this research study, 32 undergraduate students self-identified what aspects of the leadership framework were the most salient for their personal leadership learning journey. Although all six aspects of the leadership learning framework were named, this article focuses on the three aspects that five or more respondents identified as most influential in their learning. These aspects include leadership metacognition, leadership observation, and leadership development.

Leadership knowledge is viewed as an essential aspect of overall leadership learning, yet questions abound as to who decides what forms of knowledge are recognized as legitimate. This article reviews existing frames of leadership knowledge along with prior attempts to codify leadership knowledge. We then examine the function of leadership knowledge within the leadership learning framework (LLF) and explore how it connects to and illuminates other facets of the LLF model. Finally, critical questions are asked about the future evolution of leadership knowledge and the roles of context, culture, and complexity in decolonizing leadership knowledge.

In this reflective article, we offer innovative approaches to creating opportunities for leadership learning through questioning the intentions versus impacts of leading short-term study abroad courses. We consider the critical relevance of approaching a course like this from a learning disposition-recognizing our roles as learners, as well as facilitators of learning. We note the impacts of hegemony and identity, the effort and skills of dialoguing across difference, the complexities of constructive ambiguity, and the necessity to be adaptable as we navigate liminal spaces, concepts, and efforts for peace leadership. In the end, although this was a brief, 10-day experience, we came to realize our entire outlook on facilitating leadership learning shifted to recognize and grapple with these complexities.

In the face of calls for the standardization and professionalization of leadership education, a sub-field in higher education, it is important to understand who leadership educators are and how they come to understand themselves as belonging to this sub-field. Recent critiques have arisen about the overwhelming whiteness that permeates the knowledge accepted within leadership education. To be cognizant of that critical perspective, this article applies the critical whiteness studies framework to analyze existing literature about leadership educator identity and socialization. It concludes with recommendations for the field of education to implement in order to combat the impact of whiteness on the field of leadership education.
