  • Organizational Alignment – Embrace ASN’s vision, purpose, and mission by aligning actions with the organization’s overarching goals and objectives; thereby contributing to the advancement of ocular tissue donation, transplantation, and research. This is best accomplished by ensuring your decisions and actions directly support these priorities.
  • Core Values – Demonstrate ASN’s core values (Integrity, Serve, Lead, Excel, and Innovate) by consistently applying them in decision-making, interactions, and work output.
