WHEREAS, as part of this effort to wholly incorporate the Mission, Vision, Values and Goals elected
officials commit to participating in and supporting development of an organizational culture model for all

employee meetings commencing January 24, 2012, to introduce organizational culture concepts to each
and every Adams County employee; and,

WHEREAS, this series of comprehensive countywide meetings and training programs are intended to
communicate an organizational culture change and to give all county leadership and employees the tools
and training to effectively carry out the newly adopted Mission, Vision, Values and Goals.
