Our organization is hoping to show the Organization Name as the author for all of our hub site features, surveys, apps, etc. rather than the items owner, but I am not finding a way to do that. I have tried to edit the metadata on individual layers, but nothing seems to work. Is there any way to do this?

If you have a spare user license, you can always create an account for your organization. For instance, we have a user "kendall_gis", whose full name appears as Kendall County GIS.

I did think about that, I was hoping there was another workaround that did not require changing the ownership of all of the items in the hub.

@MattAdams please open an idea for content ownership configurability in the ArcGIS Hub Ideas board.  We've been thinking about methods to address this after observing multiple cases of a "proxy user" as @jcarlson suggests.
