Deb's Mission & Core Values

Mission

Provide authentic messaging and clear, compelling, and engaging communications content in order to inform, educate, and create positive impact reactions.

Core Values

Honesty & Transparency

I take pride in being direct and transparent in my work. It’s my goal to manage expectations in such a way as there are never any unpleasant surprises, unexpected costs, or gross time extensions of work if at all possible … to address and find solutions for any red flags/challenges/obstacles that appear in a timely and calmly direct manner.

Be Authentic, Passionate, & Responsive

I want to be present and truly hear the needs, wants, goals, and objectives of the company/organization  in order to ensure that my work, professional advice, and team dynamics best serve the mission and immediate business/culture needs.

Create Effective Results

I strive to create concise, clear, and accessible communications. A communications strategy and plan is useless unless the intended audience receives and absorbs it, so the goal is to present the information in such a way that is it not only received, it’s done so eagerly and creates impact and/or action.

Act With Compassion, Kindness, and Respect

I value compassion and kindness in all interactions. When working with colleagues, staff, partners, employees, vendors, and the public, I honor and respect that everyone’s perspective and experience are different and bring value to the conversation. I strive to treat everyone with whom I work with compassion and kindness – especially in times of stress.

Be Creative & Visionary

My desire is to consistently bring creativity and innovation to the work I do, to always be looking for new and/or better ways of doing something or conveying a message. To always look for the creative insight that might open up paths and doors to either an existing audience or invite in new.

Be a Learner Willing to Change & Grow

I always want to remain open to new learning experiences and opportunities for change and growth without allowing dogmatic allegiance to “that’s how we’ve always done it” stand in the way.

Diversity & Inclusion

I am an avid supporter of diverse and inclusive organizations and policies and task myself to take learning moments when they arrive to further my own knowledge and ability to be a helpful ally and advocate while creating a team culture that celebrates what each individual brings to the workplace table.
