The Promoting Diverse and Inclusive Leadership in the Geosciences project will develop and test a framework that incentivizes and rewards Inclusive Leaders in the Geosciences through changes in faculty workload policy and annual evaluations. The PIs will use a collective impact approach to engage the faculty and student partners in the process. The framework will identify training activities and evidence-based illustrative practices related to becoming and growing as Inclusive Leaders. In order to create long-term systemic change, the faculty workload policy and annual evaluation process will be amended to include this framework. Department chairs and faculty will create these amendments iteratively with support from the Dean and Provost at Boise State University. This work will first be performed at Boise State and then tested independently at Idaho State University (ISU) in order to ensure that it is adaptable to other Geoscience units at other universities across the country. Through the framework, PIs plan to provide a mechanism to institutionalize the importance, value, and recognition of leaders in diversity and inclusion. Importantly, the results and the adaptable framework will be available to other programs and departments.This project develops the novel approach of changing policy strategies to develop and support Inclusive Leaders in Geosciences. By altering the department workload policy and annual evaluation process governing rewardable actions, the PIs will identify different avenues for faculty to be rewarded for becoming and growing as Inclusive Leaders. Importantly, the process will include the student voice, thus incorporating what constitutes inclusivity from a student perspective, as well as building a pathway for future Inclusive Leaders. By both developing and testing the strategies at two institutions, the PIs will advance knowledge in how to support and sustain these leaders. This project seeks to develop novel approaches in 1) valuing and rewarding individual faculty Inclusive Leaders, and 2) engineering a road map for success that will be both long-lived and transferable to other Geoscience departments.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

在地球科学项目促进多样化和包容性的领导将开发和测试一个框架，激励和奖励包容性的领导人在地球科学通过教师工作量政策和年度评估的变化。PI将采用集体影响的方法，让教师和学生合作伙伴参与到这个过程中。该框架将确定与成为和成长为包容性领导人有关的培训活动和循证说明性做法。为了创造长期的系统性变化，教师的工作量政策和年度评估过程将被修改，以包括这一框架。系主任和教师将在博伊西州立大学院长和教务长的支持下反复制定这些修正案。这项工作将首先在博伊西州进行，然后在爱达荷州州立大学（ISU）进行独立测试，以确保它适用于全国其他大学的其他地球科学单位。通过该框架，PI计划提供一种机制，将领导者在多样性和包容性方面的重要性，价值和认可制度化。重要的是，结果和可适应的框架将提供给其他计划和部门。该项目开发了改变政策战略的新方法，以发展和支持地球科学的包容性领导者。通过改变部门的工作量政策和管理奖励行动的年度评估过程，PI将确定教师成为和成长为包容性领导者的奖励的不同途径。重要的是，这个过程将包括学生的声音，从而从学生的角度纳入什么构成包容性，以及建立未来的包容性领导人的途径。通过在两个机构制定和测试战略，PI将推进如何支持和维持这些领导者的知识。该项目旨在开发新的方法，1）重视和奖励个别教师包容性的领导者，2）工程成功的路线图，这将是长期的和转移到其他地球科学部门。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。
