However, any intervention described here should be adapted to suit the context of a particular institution, with the awareness that success in one place does not guarantee that results can be replicated in other places. Users are encouraged to monitor, assess, and evaluate interventions that are implemented in their own settings. Users should also consider that a single intervention is highly unlikely to create a meaningful impact on its own and that they should instead construct a “bundle” of interventions (from either this toolkit or elsewhere) that address issues identified at their institution. Further, many of the interventions described here evolved over time as program implementers received feedback and learned what was and was not working and what worked initially but needed to be adapted to continue to work effectively. Thus, users of this toolkit are also encouraged to adopt an approach of continual measurement, learning, and adaptation.</span></p></div><div class="modal-footer"><button class="btn btn-sm btn-primary" type="button" data-bs-dismiss="modal">Close</button></div></div></div></div></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </div> <div class="views-element-container block block-views block-views-blockprize-competition-toolkit-block-1" id="block-orwh-views-block-prize-competition-toolkit-block-1"> <div block="block-orwh-views-block-prize-competition-toolkit-block-1"><div class="prize-competition-toolkit view view-prize-competition-toolkit view-id-prize_competition_toolkit view-display-id-block_1 js-view-dom-id-53b7530b5f252d23de7de00742461801f4a8c5c5bfbd6cd604a1c05cb8331089"> <div class="view-header"> <style> .orwh-exposed-filters .form--inline { align-items: end; float: none !important;} .tooltip-inner { max-width: 300px; font-size:13px;text-align:left; } .tooltip-inner ul, .tooltip-inner ol { margin: 5px 0; padding-inline-start:15px;} </style> </div> <div class="view-filters"> <form class="views-exposed-form bef-exposed-form" data-bef-auto-submit-full-form="" data-bef-auto-submit="" data-bef-auto-submit-delay="500" data-drupal-selector="views-exposed-form-prize-competition-toolkit-block-1" action="/prize-competition-toolkit" method="get" id="views-exposed-form-prize-competition-toolkit-block-1" accept-charset="UTF-8"> <div class="orwh-exposed-filters"> <div class="form--inline clearfix"> <div class="js-form-item form-item js-form-type-select form-type-select js-form-item-field-college-university-size-target-id form-item-field-college-university-size-target-id"> <label for="edit-field-college-university-size-target-id--5">College/University Size</label> <select data-drupal-selector="edit-field-college-university-size-target-id" aria-describedby="edit-field-college-university-size-target-id--5--description" id="edit-field-college-university-size-target-id--5" name="field_college_university_size_target_id" class="form-select form-control"><option value="All" selected="selected">- Any -</option><option value="73">Small (8)</option><option value="74">Medium (31)</option><option value="75">Large (19)</option></select> <button id="edit-field-college-university-size-target-id--5--description" class="description btn btn-info btn-primary" type="button" data-bs-toggle="tooltip" data-bs-html="true" title="<ul><li>Small: fewer than 1,000 faculty members<li>Medium: 1,000 to 1,999 faculty members<li>Large: 2,000 or more</ul>"> ?

COVID-19-related travel bans resulted in canceled meetings, fewer networking opportunities, and subsequent difficulty in finding collaborators and mentors, and the lack of presentations was delaying promotions. However, the utilization of virtual platforms has opened doors for women, many of whom have constrained time to travel because of family obligations and can now “travel” virtually without worrying about child care. This award targets women who would benefit from speaking, mentoring, and networking opportunities at the national or international level. Faculty members apply to be a virtual visiting professor to give grand rounds at an extramural institute. They also are paired with a champion, who helps arrange the visiting lectureship and finds a mentor at the extramural institute. Coaching and a virtual career development seminar series are also provided.</p></div></div> <div class="views-field views-field-field-evidence"><div class="views-label views-label-field-evidence field-title--pct">Evidence: </div><div class="field-content"><p>Before–after surveys of participants indicate that there has been a significant increase (<em>P</em>&lt;0.05) in the number of faculty members who agree that the award creates an environment that promotes visibility and knowledge of available institutional information and resources and that the hospital promotes a culture of mentorship.

Peer mentorship groups were developed for women, diverse, and LGBTQ+ faculty members; the groups themselves drive the agenda for what is mentored. A peer coaching program was also developed for individual coaching by and for women. The peer coaching program used anonymized case reports of scenarios of adverse gendered interactions and focused on analyzing the situations and developing strategies to respond to the situations. Seven part-time faculty advisory deans (four women) were appointed to advise individual faculty members and the peer mentoring groups. Funding was provided to sponsor faculty members for workshops and the Executive Leadership in Academic Medicine (ELAM) program.

However, the year after the program started, the greatest number of women were promoted from associate professor to full professor than in any year since data had been collected.</p></div></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="views-row"> <div class="collapsible-card collapsible-card--pct"> <div class="card-header card-header--pct"> <a href="#entry-2145" class="collapsed" aria-expanded="false" data-bs-target="#entry-2145" data-bs-toggle="collapse"> <div class="views-field views-field-title">Raising the visibility of women in science and medicine</div><div class="views-field views-field-field-university"><div class="field-content font-italic mb-2">University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center</div></div><span class="views-field views-field-field-college-university-size"><span class="field-content badge badge--pct text-uppercase">Medium</span></span><span><span class="badge badge--pct text-uppercase">Department</span></span><div class="views-field views-field-field-target-population"><div class="field-content"><div class="row"> <div class="col-md-4"> <div class="text-uppercase field-title--pct">Type of Intervention</div> Training, workshops, conferences, networking </div> <div class="col-md-4"> <div class="text-uppercase field-title--pct">Target Population</div> Other target or no specific target </div> <div class="col-md-4"> <div class="text-uppercase field-title--pct">Type of Outcome</div> Change in outcome measures </div> </div></div></div> </a> </div> <div id="entry-2145" data-bs-parent="#accordion_pct" class="collapse"> <div class="card-body card-body--pct"> <div class="views-field views-field-body"><div class="views-label views-label-body field-title--pct">Intervention Description: </div><div class="field-content"><p>The Office of Women Faculty Programs (now Faculty Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) sought to raise recognition for women researchers by increasing the honors and awards they receive.

Specifically, participants have valued the research findings on unconscious/implicit bias. The workshop has also been shown to improve gender equity in STEMM departments and led to the development of two additional workshops to cover race/ethnicity and other forms of diversity. Quasi-experimental data show that departments where at least one member has attended a workshop have had significant increases in the percentage of women faculty members hired, while comparable departments have had a decrease. Departments having had multiple members attend the workshop have seen a stronger effect. Similarly, the chances of a department’s making a job offer to a woman faculty member are higher in participating departments. Applicants have also reported a more positive experience in departments with a participant compared with those without.

Evaluations suggest that the series has helped individuals be strategic about their career advancement, offered opportunities to learn from other women and expand their networks, and offered opportunities to share strategies for intervening against implicit bias and discrimination.
