They truly believe in our mission, whether they are regularly working with Gladney clients, fixing a leak in the building, or upgrading a computer, all understand their impact is part of a larger purpose greater than the individual task at hand. With the help of the Disney Institute, we have focused our culture on this very idea: our work should be purpose focused, not task focused. This mindset has helped with both our internal and external client experience because when you are purpose driven, there is much more meaning behind the task you are doing. Most importantly, it leads to more engaged and fulfilled employees.  [Read More](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/gladney-culture) 1 Comment [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/gladney-culture#comments-listing) ## [Everything You Need To Know About the China Ambassadors of Love Program](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-china-ambassadors-of-love-program) Posted by [Wendy Stanley, LMSW, JD](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/author/wendy-stanley-lmsw-jd) on 10/7/19, 12:30 PM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/hubfs/icon-china.svg)](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-china-ambassadors-of-love-program)   [Read More](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-china-ambassadors-of-love-program) 1 Comment [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-china-ambassadors-of-love-program#comments-listing) Topics: [Superkids](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/tag/superkids), [China Adoption](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/tag/china-adoption), [Advocacy](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/tag/advocacy), [Waiting Children](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/tag/waiting-children), [International Adoption](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/tag/international-adoption), ["Ambassadors of Love"](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/tag/ambassadors-of-love) ## [Jasper {China}](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/jasper-china) Posted by [Superkids Team](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/author/superkids-team) on 10/1/19, 10:11 AM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/hubfs/%E5%BE%AE%E4%BF%A1%E5%9B%BE%E7%89%87_20190912160904.jpg)](https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/jasper-china) October is national Down syndrome awareness month!!
