• Consistently incorporate core values into day-to-day operations.
• Frame operational issues and decision-making around core values.
• All who are extensions of the Deans/leaders must embody and illustrate the core values—they represent the Deans and leaders.

• Establish an email box where core values’ concerns and compliments can be submitted anonymously.
• Publicly celebrate kudos.
• Incorporate into interview processes.
• Ask President Jarrell to speak directly with School faculty as the lead champion for core values across the campus.

• Work with people the prepare remarks both internally and externally.
• Document the core values implementation plan.
• Include core values measures or outcomes identified by the School into the Deans dashboard (consider anonymously polling the School team – faculty, staff, students - to assess the culture as a baseline and continuous measurement).
• Document the definitions of the core values and their specific behaviors within the schools.
• Hear the ways the leads are embodying the core values – action-oriented.
• Leadership cannot communicate in an undermining manner.
• Personalize the core value specifics to the unit, maybe as a website.
• Create some type of symbolism of dedication to the Core Values program – e.g., through marketing campaign with flags, buttons, pins.
• Create a core values board, similar to what is used in A&F, that lists the core values and ask everyone in the unit to sign it as a commitment to them.

• Establish group awards around core values, recognizing shifts in culture.
• Host Q & A sessions around core values, complementing those hosted by Dr. Jarrell.

• Actions must match the words.
• Intrinsic and authentic behavior.
• Spend time out and about to be seen role modeling. Go out with a purpose. This can also be done in the virtual world. Include icebreakers as a way to engage.
• Everyone must model the vision of the Dean – motivate team members to create behavioral expectations about what you expect of me – e.g., customer service is important and what that means.
• Help everyone see the value.
• Intentionally call out the core values used in the decision-making process – especially when the decision is a difficult one.
• Make sure expectations are clear.
• Make self-care acceptable, not something to be embarrassed about.
• Talk about how you attend/commit to own your own wellness.
• Ensure that there are no retaliations/repercussions for acknowledging/exercising/prioritizing well-being.
