This article discusses the conceptual bridges between the leadership learning framework; specifically, its emphasis on metacognition and social justice advocacy, and explores how leadership education might be revamped. The focus of the article is practicing socially shared metacognition using the American Counseling Association's (ACA) advocacy competencies model. The purpose of the ACA advocacy model is to offer comprehensive advocacy--at individual, group, and community dimensions--with interventions aimed at systematic change. The model stresses creating alliances and working with the community. The article concludes with the practical implications of applying metacognition in leadership education and additional resources. A case example (Kai) is used throughout this article.
