Moving Toward A Responsibility Based
Cooperative Extension

Over the last year and in the next several years, the employees of Cooperative Extension will continue to build the capacity to learn and apply the skills necessary to be an even more productive organization in which people enjoy their work.

Together, we will continue to:

  • Build a responsibility-based culture with a high level of trust at all levels.
  • Learn to share information freely and discuss feelings and opinions without hidden agendas.
  • Learn to make our expectations clear and resolve more disagreements without relying on formal processes.
  • Value differences and respect colleagues for their contributions and input.
  • Learn how to keep our commitments, always strive for excellence and count on each other for support.

We are guided through this process by Keith Ayers, the director of an organization called the Intégro Leadership Institute. You can learn more about Keith's work at www.integroleadership.com.
