The capacity to be responsive in the short term is certainly important for the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS) and absolutely critical for an organization like Cooperative Extension (CE). Similarly, CALS and CE have a commitment to programs that are long term in nature.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Consistent with the mission of a land grant institution, CALS CE must maintain direct lines of communication and function with stakeholders throughout the state and maintain the capacity to be flexible to respond to short-term needs and demands that can develop. This is consistent with the “mobility” and “flexibility” that I commonly refer to as important aspects of CALS CE. As the organization of CALS CE has the need to be flexible and responsive to short-term needs, so do the individuals working within CALS CE.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Part of the challenge in orchestrating a balance with our demands for short-term responsiveness, are the responsibilities we have to maintain some consistency over the long term. While an organization like CALS CE does not have the capacity to “turn on a dime,” the benefit to that aspect of the organization is the capacity to maintain some long-term consistency. Consistent with our mission and the capacity to develop effective programs from our base of operation in CALS, CE can provide a foundation of consistency in function and direction for CALS in a long-term manner. This consistency can also be translated to a sense of stability for an organization over time.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>As we work to effectively manage our resources in CALS CE, we are constantly faced with the dual demands of short-term responsiveness and long-term responsibility.
