Voices of the Staff

Voices of the Staff (Voices) is U-M’s employee engagement program. It's your opportunity to share ideas and define the campus community issues that matter most to you. 

Voices is Celebrating 20 Years of Working for a Better U!

It's an amazing year to apply to join Voices of the Staff. We are celebrating two decades of making a difference! And this may be our most important year yet. Rising to today's challenges is only possible with people like you - staff members who are ready to share input, ideas, time, and talent in service of creating a better workplace.  

If selected, you join more than 120 staff members from across all campuses to meet monthly, serving on one of six topic-specific network teams. There is a seventh Voices team comprised of alumni of the program. New members begin their two- or three-year commitment in June at an all-day annual meeting. See this video recap of a recent meeting:
