蘑菇TV launches taskforce on values

May 06, 2025

As 蘑菇TV continues to strengthen its organizational culture and commitment to employees, it is important to hear from all staff and faculty on workplace experiences. In order to do this, 蘑菇TV gathered data from the 鈥淕reat Colleges to Work For鈥� survey and launched a steering committee to the Taskforce on Values. The taskforce is an advisory group that will focus on defining, through campus engagement efforts, the behaviors we expect of ourselves and one another as members of the 蘑菇TV community.

Large, three-dimensional letters spelling "蘑菇TV" in blue and green colors. These letters are mounted on a white base and situated outdoors on a paved area at the Library Lawn. In the background, there are trees, greenery, and a partial view of the Cohen Student Union.

The goal is to achieve campus-wide agreement on a maximum of five values and descriptions for each. These values will govern the behavior of employees and will be unique to working at 蘑菇TV. Each value will be one word and reflect what we want our workplace culture to look like.

&苍产蝉辫;鈥淗aving shared agreement across the campus about how we work together will pull us together across our different divisions, colleges and departments, and give us a shared framework to hold each other accountable,鈥� said Kitty Green, vice president of Advancement. Green is leading the steering committee to support the taskforce and further define 蘑菇TV鈥檚 values.

Throughout May, listening sessions will occur around campus at college, school, divisional, shared governance and department meetings. Employees will have the opportunity to attend these sessions and share their input on 蘑菇TV鈥檚 values. To view upcoming sessions for your area, visit fgcu.edu/employee-experience.

From May through June, the committee will use the feedback collected at the sessions and work with the taskforce to help define those values. It will then be discussed with focus groups during the summer. If you are interested in being part of a focus group to review and give feedback on the draft values, use the values feedback form under the 鈥渟鈥� tab to sign up.

Once finalized, 蘑菇TV鈥檚 values will be announced during the 2025 Fall Welcome Celebration on Aug. 11.
