Creating a Balanced Mix of Stories

Our brand attributes serve as an organizing principle for how we present the collective UB story by:

  • Guiding how we frame the stories we tell
  • Balancing the range of stories we tell
  • Placing the stories we tell into a continuous narrative

Here’s how we might categorize stories by brand attribute, ensuring we have a balance across all four attributes:
