	abstract = {
	Historically, academic departments at Skidmore College operated with large degrees of autonomy from one another. Groups rarely collaborated, which made it difficult for faculty and administrators to address climate and leadership challenges across divisions. In the absence of a centralized group equipped with the tools and resources needed to address these issues, Skidmore partnered with the Collaborative on Academic Careers in Higher Education (COACHE) and conducted the Faculty Job Satisfaction Survey to identify ways to improve departmental climates. 



	Using Skidmore{\textquoteright}s survey results as a baseline for their first meeting, the team, which Skidmore leaders dubbed the {\textquoteleft}COACHE Collaborators{\textquoteright}, worked together to identify\&nbsp;three areas of departmental climate in need of attention: collegiality, diversity and inclusion, and work-life balance.
