10 pages, via online journal, Extension’s ability to purposively develop the capacity of its agents to effectively work with and
lead people is limited by a lack of data that identifies for which competencies agents need training.Interpersonal leadership competencies are widely recognized as important for Extension
professionals and the literature indicates they are linked with job satisfaction, motivation, and
performance. The Borich method was used to identify priority training needs for Extension agents
in Florida within the interpersonal leadership domain. A Principal Component Analysis revealed
the interpersonal leadership competencies could be operationalized into two latent constructs,
conflict management and group leadership. Competencies for which training is most needed were
mostly part of the conflict management construct. The results can be used to intentionally design
professional development programs, improve the state’s competency model, and inform future
research related to conflict in Extension.

James F. Evans Collection, Since the late 1950s and 1960s, New Hampshire has experienced unprecedented growth. During the past two decades, this growth has begun to be felt in the state's North Country, particularly among its many small communities. As a result of developmental pressures in this region, numerous local problems related to the environment and socio-economic conditions surfaced. The responsibility for meeting the challenges of such growth and development often fell on amateur bureaucrats. Relatively little is known about how representative such officials are of their local citizenry in terms of attitudes and opinions or socio-demographics. This paper presents the results of a study comparing demographic characteristics and assesses the congruence of attitudes of citizens and local government officials in the North Country of New Hampshire.

James F. Evans Collection, Ham, Mimeographed, 1994. 1 p. Presented at the Society for Nutrition Education, Portland, OR, July 16-20, 1994., Two hundred and twelve Idaho citizens participated in the "Train the Trainer" Safety and Food excellence (S.A.F.E.) educational program during 1993. Idaho's effort was part of an eight state strategy to reduce the risk of illness from foods served to individuals with weakened immune systems. Funding was obtained through the FY92 ES-USDA Food Safety and Quality Initiative. S.A.F.E., a four hour leader training program, is an action-oriented program which teaches professionals, paraprofessionals an volunteers to present education programs aimed at changing specific food handling practices. Individuals who work with the elderly or other high-risk population groups were targeted. The seven Idaho programs were team taught by the Extension Food Safety Specialist, a county Extension Home Economist and an Environmental Health Specialist from the local health district. Participants received three food safety posters, learned appropriate food safety practices and teaching strategies and set personal behavior goals. Mean knowledge scores increased from 89% to 96%. Ninety seven percent of the participants set personal food safety behavior goals. At a three month self-reported evaluation, a majority met their goals "most of the time" and almost all met their goal "some of the time". Over 950 food safety posters have been distributed. Estimates suggests each poster has been seen by an average of 25 individuals. The trained program leaders have utilized food safety educational strategies from the S.A.F.E. workshop and reached between 4 and 282 others.

15 pages, Using a semi-structured interview approach, ten mentors from a leadership development program focused on building leaders in Colleges of Agriculture and Life Sciences across the nation provided insights regarding their mentoring method, process, and experiences. Mentors interviewed agreed the mentoring process was beneficial for themselves as well as their mentee. However, clear thematic differences were evident depending on whether a previously existing relationship was in place between mentor and mentee. Specifically, mentoring relationships that were extensions of previous relationships tended to have less formal structures and more subjective outcomes than newly established mentoring relationship counterparts. Nevertheless, both categories of mentoring relationships indicated a desire for a formal set of mentoring expectations as well as access to program curriculum to help guide and inform the process.
6 pages, This study introduces a framework for 4-H leadership competencies and explores the relationship between 4-H leadership programs and participant leadership life skills development. Illinois 4-H members aged 15-18 completed an online survey about their 4-H experiences and skills. Participants reported local programs exhibited the characteristics in the leadership competencies framework. Members participating in leadership competency programs reported higher leadership life skills scores than those in other 4-H non-leadership oriented programs. Females reported higher leadership life skills scores in comparison to males. However, spending more years in leadership programs was only related to a significant change in skills development for some participants.
