Book excerpt: Florida Cooperative Extension has been the outreach component of the University of Florida/Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences (UF/IFAS). Cooperative Extension is located in all sixty-seven counties in Florida. At the county level, a county Extension director (CED) is responsible for the leadership and management of the local Extension office. CEDs have sometimes begun their new careers without prior leadership training or experience or without a clear understanding of their responsibilities.

A strong need to identify these leadership competencies has been ignored. To address these problems, the leadership competencies perceived by the CEDs and the DEDs must be identified.
