The book discusses the current and relevant issues that women engineers face in their work and daily lives in South Africa, as well as the challenges and reward that women experience and the motivation they have for their careers. We share with the reader the reality and truth of being a woman, working as an engineer, in a country as challenging and diverse as South Africaand suggest solutions that government, companies, and institutions may consider for implementation in the attraction and retention of technical women. The format of the book assumes that of storytelling by nine contributing professionals and its intention is to highlight the significant and vital contribution that women engineers make as leaders and change agents in South Africa. I believe that their stories represent what all women engineers experience during the span of their careers and lives, and the book concludes with leadership qualities required for a career in engineering.
