The Department Climate Committee collected policies and practices from a variety of sources to provide department chairs and heads with opportunities to learn about departmental issues at Virginia Tech, to understand more fully the ways in which these issues manifest themselves within departments, and to share both successful and unsuccessful strategies illustrative of the different approaches departments have taken towards promoting effective, efficient, and pleasant work environments.30 pagesapplication/pdfen-USIn CopyrightCreating a Positive Departmental Climate at Virginia Tech: A Compendium of Successful StrategiesReportVirginia Tech
