Team Orange,

Can you keep a secret? I have some “ juicy ” gossip to share with Team Orange! Rumor has it that everyone who attended the Orange J.U.I.C.E spirit event on Monday at Booster Park had a blast!! In case you missed it, Orange JUICE stands for Joyful, Uplifting, Innovative, Caring and Empowering. These are the values that we want to establish in our workplace culture. Why? Because a positive workplace culture helps our Orange County Team more effectively serve our community. It ’ s simple. If you don ’ t like your workplace, you ’ re less effective at doing your job. But, when people enjoy their workplace, they are “ force multipliers ” who get things done and provide better customer service. That ’ s why workplace culture is so important. Speaking of secrets, we can now let the secret out that the Center for Digital Government (CDG) and the National Association of Counties (NACo) announced their 2022 Digital Counties Survey Award winners. Orange County was honored to receive the award and to have ranked fifth nationwide among counties of up to 150,000 residents! The survey, developed in partnership with NACo, and conducted by CDG, identifies the best technology practices among U.S. counties, including initiatives that streamline delivery of government services; encourage collaboration; enhance cybersecurity and apply innovative and emerging technologies to county priorities. No need to keep secrets! Let ’ s let everyone know that Orange County is a great place to work and getting better every day.
