Orange County Insight June 2025

Ted’s Talk

Team Orange:

The OC Insight began as an initiative to keep employees and residents of Orange County informed about our organization's services, programs, and operations. From the start, it was an experiment—launched in a digital format and delivered by email. Now, we're taking another step forward by introducing a digital video message in this space. Our first-ever video installment will focus on something essential to our collective success: our organizational values. Over a year ago, as part of our Cultural Initiative and stemming from the Senior Leadership Team’s strategic planning efforts, we began discussing the significance of identifying our shared values. This process allows us to better align our purpose and approach as we strive to serve our community. It reinforces the idea that “what we do” matters, but only if we also prioritize “how we do it.”

The journey to establishing our organizational values wasn’t entirely linear—we started, paused, and restarted the process. But today, after broad employee input, we are in a strong position to move forward. I’m proud to share what’s next with you.

Ted Voorhees,

Orange County Administrator
