TRANSCRIPT
33.1 Brand framework3.1.1 brand narrative
Inspired to Care: our focus on delivering exceptional, compassionate care.
Inspired to Serve: our commitment to playing our part in the overall mission of St Vincent’s Health Australia.
Inspired to Lead: an ongoing call to lead others and ourselves in service to our mission, vision, values, creed and strategy.
Inspired to Shine: an unswerving intent to play our part in creating a safe, respectful, values based work environment for all.
Our brand is a commitment, a promise we make to ourselves, and each other.
A promise about the standards we uphold in how we do business and how we relate to each other.
It presents the ‘Why’ behind the ‘What’ – a succinct distillation of the purpose behind everything we do.
This purpose is drawn from our Values, our Mission to care for the poor and vulnerable and our Creed that upholds the dignity of each and every person. All these elements find their foundation in the scripture ‘the love of Christ inspires us’.
It is this ‘inspiration’ that drove the Sisters all those years ago to endure a hazardous journey across thousands of miles of ocean to venture to
an unknown land called Australia. It is this same inspiration that drives us all today in everything we do – from serving meals and cleaning rooms, pioneering cutting edge research and leading the highest standards in surgical procedures. This inspiration is focused through our organisation-wide strategy ‘enVision2025’ to achieve our strategic goals and desired future.
Inspiration sits at the very heart of our brand.
‘Inspired by You’ is how we express that as our brand promise.
It is an acknowledgement that the source of our inspiration is the people around us, each incredibly valuable and worthy of our utmost care and respect.
‘Inspired by You’ is the primary external message related to the St Vincent’s brand. It is to be used in all external marketing communications. It is only to be used as per the approved logotype provided in these guidelines. And it cannot impede on the clear space requirements of the SVHA logo.
It is important to note that ‘Inspired by You’ is not a replacement to the ‘Serving, Seeing, Striving’ narrative. That messaging is the way we communicate the strategic direction by which we set out in our strategy ‘enVision2025’. All communications related to ‘enVision2025’ should continue to use the ‘Serving, Seeing, Striving’ set of messages.
Internally our brand is focused around four key people initiatives – Care, Leadership, Mission and a work place free of bullying and discrimination (the Ethos Program). The framework we use to express these initiatives is also part of our overall brand, drawn from the same sense of inspiration, but focused on specific activities. They are expressed as below.
See the following pages for further detail on internal and external brand and page 45 for the brand messaging reference guide.

3.1 Brand framework3.1.4 key messaging and tone of voice
Tone of voiceWhen we talk as a brand we are genuine, positive, credible and clear. Our actions are in accordance with, and in support of, our words — we only say what we mean. We are caring and people focused but always hold ourselves to the highest standards of clinical care and professionalism.
We keep our messaging direct, simple and to the point but we always talk with warmth, compassion and understanding.
We have a powerful and compelling heritage that defines our deeply held mission and values but we maintain a firm future focus, looking always to learn,
grow and better deliver on our commitment to care.
We champion the needs of the poor and vulnerable but are driven more by action than rhetoric.

Clear space around logotypesIn order to protect the brand, an area of clear space has been determined for use around these logotypes.
The measurement for the clear space is taken from the ‘X’ value, which is the height of the ‘n’ in the word ‘Inspired’.
2 X = Clear space.
Clear space between wordsTo allow for flexibility in design, clear space has been determined for use in the instance the words need to be rearranged.
The measurement for the clear space is taken from the ‘X’ value, which is the height of the ‘n’ in the word ‘Inspired’.
If changing the position of words the X value must remain between the words.
The words descenders are excluded from this rule but cannot touch the other word.
Height relationThe ‘You’ must always appear larger than the words ‘Inspired by’.
The ‘Y’ in ‘You’ must be set approximately 8 times the X height. The measurement for the ‘X’ value is the height of the ‘n’ in the word ‘Inspired’.

Clear space around logotypesIn order to protect the brand, an area of clear space has been determined for use around these logotypes.
The measurement for the clear space is taken from the ‘X’ value, which is the height of the ‘n’ in the word ‘Inspired’.
1 1/2 X = Clear space.
Clear space between wordsTo allow for flexibility in design, clear space has been determined for use in the instance the words need to be rearranged.
The measurement for the clear space is taken from two values, the ‘X’ value, which is the height of the ‘n’ in ‘Inspired’ and the ‘Y’ value, which is the height of the ‘d’ in the word ‘Inspired’.
If changing position of the script word, 1/2 of the Y height must remain between the baseline of ‘Inspired to’ and the top of the lowercase characters such as ‘a’ in the example below. If a title case or the ascender of a lowercase character enters this space it is ok as long as 1/4 of the X height remains.
Height relationThe script word must always appear larger than the words ‘Inspired to’.
Either the lowercase ‘e’ or ‘o’ of the script word must be set approximately 2.5 times the X height. The measurement for the ‘X’ value is the height of the ‘n’ in the word ‘Inspired’.
Word angleThe script word must always remain at the same angle as the logotypes. This angle is set to 8 degrees.

‘Inspired by You’ is the primary external message related to the St Vincent’s brand. It is to be used in all external marketing communications, either as the primary message or as a support to other marketing communications.
It may also be used for internal applications where beneficial.
SVHA people initiatives will enable this brand promise to become a reality, therefore internal communications for these approved Group-wide initiatives will use the framework of ‘Inspired to...’. Each of the 'Inspired to...' logotypes can be used as a standalone to assist in the communication of the Program to which is related. It does not need to be used in conjunction with Inspired by You, enVision2025 or Serving, Seeing, Striving logotypes but can as and when appropriate.
