UMBC Retriever Talks

“In times of adversity and change, we really discover who we are and what we’re made of.” ~ Howard Schultz

When an individual shares their story with the larger community, we can all experience what it means to make an impact. When we outwardly share our lived experiences of our values, we realize a sense of collective identity and belonging that is powerful, palpable, and vital in promoting a thriving workplace culture.

In 2020, we recruited a second cohort of eight faculty and staff, this time focusing on the four values themes: Reach Together, Claim Your Future, Extend Beyond, Explore Every Angle. The program adapted to remote work and moved the 13-week leadership and speaker development program successfully online. We look forward to seeing you on June 2nd from 3:00 p.m. – 4:30 p.m. for the Youtube live event! UMBC community members register here. Speaker friends and family, stay tuned for a link here the week of the event.
