We would love to have you join us!

We are a group of Maricopa staff, faculty and administrators who all have a shared interest in the topic of PURPOSE. Although we have different job descriptions, we’ve discovered that we share an important uniting belief: that success (academic, career and personal) is connected to having a well-developed sense of purpose; a sense of knowing WHY we do what we do.

Our shared interest has grown into the district-wide Purpose Coalition. We’ve created a network of people who want to share ideas about how to incorporate purpose development into our work (with students and colleagues). In addition to being a wonderful professional development opportunity, the exchange of ideas and connection with positive people from across the district has led many of us to feel re-energized, and that our own sense of purpose has been strengthened.

Those who can meet virtually once a month during the academic year and we have a DL (email distribution list) to stay connected outside of meetings. We also have a Google site and a shared Google drive for sharing information.

If you have questions, are interested in learning more, or know that you would like to join the Coalition, please email me (Andrea) at andrea.scherrer@scottsdalecc.edu.
