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.

促进地球科学多元化和包容性领导力项目将开发和测试一个框架，通过改变教师工作量政策和年度评估来激励和奖励地球科学领域的包容性领导者。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来。该框架将确定与成为和成长为包容性领导者相关的培训活动和基于证据的说明性实践。为了创造长期的系统变化，教师工作量政策和年度评估过程将被修改以包括这个框架。在博伊西州立大学院长和教务长的支持下，系主任和教师将反复制定这些修正案。这项工作将首先在博伊西州立大学进行，然后在爱达荷州立大学（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元。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，结果和适应性框架将可用于其他项目和部门。该项目开发了改变政策战略的新方法，以培养和支持地球科学领域的包容性领导者。通过改变部门工作量政策和管理奖励行为的年度评估流程，pi将确定不同的途径，以奖励成为和成长为包容性领导者的教师。重要的是，这一过程将包括学生的声音，从而从学生的角度纳入包容性的构成，并为未来的包容性领导者建立一条途径。通过在两家机构开发和测试这些战略，pi将提升如何支持和维持这些领导者的知识。该项目旨在开发以下方面的新方法：1)评估和奖励个别教师包容性领袖；2)设计一个长期成功的路线图，并可转移到其他地球科学部门。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
