“…More than 150 universities across the United States have now received direct funding or indirect support (through partnerships for application, innovation, and dissemination) from ADVANCE to improve women’s recruitment, advancement, retention, and leadership in science and engineering. These projects include a dual emphasis on equipping women faculty to better navigate the academic pipeline through leadership development, networking, coaching, and mentoring programs as well as simultaneously implementing culture-change initiatives such as training and educating department chairs and deans (women participants’ middle and upper managers) about implicit gender bias, leadership development coaching of department chairs, conducting faculty climate (engagement) surveys to improve micro (departmental) climates, establishing organization-wide networks and advisory councils on women and minorities, instituting family-friendly and academic career flexibility policies, enacting child care initiatives, and targeting the increase of women in leadership positions (Bilimoria & Liang, 2014).…”
