Insights into Impact: Evaluating an Adult Leadership Program Offered through Michigan State University Extension
Aaron J. McKim; Jordan Pusateri Burroughs
Journal of Extension, v61 n4 Article 4 2024
Agriculture, food, and natural resource (AFNR) systems need leaders to catalyze positive change. Thus, Extension professionals have consistently developed innovative and impactful leadership programming. In the current study, the alumni of one such program in Michigan were surveyed to evaluate the sustained impact of the program. Program alumni rated themselves highest in Empowerment and Perspective Development and perceived the strongest programmatic impact in Empowerment and Emotional Resilience. These data were further analyzed to create a "Leadership Impact Factor," which illuminates the impact of a program using a single number. Recommendations are made for Extension professionals facilitating similar leadership education programming.
