Mission & Values

King of Prussia District engages public and private partners to collaboratively improve the economic environment in King of Prussia by making it more vibrant, attractive and prosperous.

Through an exploration process in summer 2022, the staff engaged an outside consultant to help determine individual and company core values. These values drive our organizational work and the way we work with each other and others outside of the organization. We are now operationalizing these values across multiple platforms in the organization including printed and digital collateral, position descriptions and simple day-to-day reminders.

PROGRESSIVE

We realize opportunity, challenge convention and pursue our vision with passion.

DETERMINED

We strive for excellence, produce with purpose and inspire collaborations that strengthen community.

FUN

We value humor and personality as much as accomplishment, create extraordinary experiences and have fun while we get sh*t done!
