Learning and Organizational Development (L&OD) in Human Resources has developed a new vision and mission that express the department's shared purpose and growing role in supporting people and organizational success across the Davis campus and UC Davis Health.
The statements build on an established foundation: L&OD has been operating under a shared departmental strategic plan aligned with the HR strategic plan. The new vision and mission capture the purpose and long-term aspirations guiding that work.
We are excited to share that starting in January 2027, Campus New Employee Welcome (CNEW) is going monthly. This new format allows employees to participate closer to their start date and receive timely benefits information, helping them feel connected, informed and supported early in their new role.
