Everything you need for

Employee Branding

Toolkit Home

Welcome to Mizzou. We’re so glad you’re here!

Mizzou’s brand and core values aren’t just a fancy marketing strategy, they are upheld, supported and enhanced by each and every one of us. Our faculty, staff and students come together to make Mizzou more than an institution — we create a thriving community of helpers, visionaries, doers and dreamers. We seek. We solve. We show. And we’re excited to have you join us.

This toolkit will guide you through employee branding — including name badges and business cards — and provide resources and templates to help you learn and incorporate the Mizzou brand at every step.

If you have any questions, Licensing & Brand Management is here to help! Please email identity@missouri.edu.

Our Story

We're in the midst of what matters

Mizzou is where hands-on experience catapults careers, and the opportunity to collaborate leads to something greater. This is where you’ll find passionate, dedicated leaders joining together to tackle the world’s most pressing problems.

As the foundation of the University of Missouri brand, this mindset becomes the starting point for every story we tell and supports our brand narrative. 

What is a Brand Narrative?

The narrative is the core of the University of Missouri story. It is used to guide our voice, support core messages, and supply us with words and phrases we can use to build communications that reach and inspire our internal and external audiences.
