Our Meeting Today • Get to know each other • Project overview – the grant and expanded activities to other colleges • The roles of FEAs • Present • Future • Next steps
THE ADAPP APPROACH • Approach supported by theory and a large body of research demonstrating that increasing the structure and alignment of policies and practices will promote a high quality and inclusive workforce (Arthur and Doverspike, 2005; Ericksen & Dyer, 2005; Evans, Puckik, & Barsoux, 2002; Gratton & Truss, 2003). • This project is creating tools NOT rules • Units, colleges, Provost & academic governance create and modify the “rules” • Tools will be built on best practices & be responsive to college-based needs (as demonstrated by data). Advancing Diversity through the Alignment of Policies and Practices (ADAPP)
FACULTY EXCELLENCE ADVOCATES • Senior faculty serving as Faculty Excellence Advocates (FEAs) work with colleges and departments, as well as with Academic Human Resources. • 25% appointment, either from grant or from Provost • Are held accountable for helping to move the objectives of the project forward (via periodic reporting) • FEAs have worked with grant personnel to collect data via surveys of: • Current practices in departments; and • Faculty perceptions of faculty hiring, evaluation, resource allocation and advancement Advancing Diversity through the Alignment of Policies and Practices (ADAPP)
FEA’S (cont.) • FEA roles going forward -- How do we best advance quality and inclusion? • Identify best practices in AHR at the college & department level • Communicate these practices to chairs, faculty advisory committee members, fellow FEAs, your faculty as a whole, as well as with the AHR and ADAPP team. • Identify opportunities for ADAPP and AHR to support chairs and units • Promote existing resources • Identify any lack of alignment • Suggest new/improved policies and practices • Other?
NEXT STEPS … How can FEAs, AHR and ADAPP communicate as we move forward? (on-line strategies, in-person meetings, ½ day retreat, sub-groups, other?)
