The University of Florida / IFAS South Florida Beef Forage Program (SFBFP) is composed of county Extension faculty and state specialists.  The members, in conjunction with the UF/IFAS Program Evaluation and Organizational Development unit, created a survey in 1982, which is used to evaluate ranch management practices.  The survey is updated and distributed every 5 years to ranchers in 14 South Florida counties: Charlotte, Collier, DeSoto, Glades, Hardee, Hendry, Highlands, Hillsborough, Lee, Manatee, Martin, Okeechobee, Polk, and Sarasota.  The responses are anonymous.

Effectively addressing diversity issues can be a challenge in any organization—yet, when done well, it can manifest as more of an opportunity to foster a strong sense of community and maximize potential within it. In this column, Sarah Leadley maps the robust approach taken at the University of Washington Bothell/Cascadia College Library to develop cultural competencies among staff and establish diversity as a strategic priority. The library’s integrated agenda, grounded in the principles of social justice and built around teachable moments, suggests a noteworthy facet of organizational development that is well worth modeling.

In an attempt to revamp the orientation leader training process, Towson University began using appreciative inquiry (AI) with student leaders to both plan and conduct skilldevelopment workshops. Originally crafted as an organizational development tool, AI served as a powerful way to use the collective wisdom of student leaders and built upon their desires for a more impactful training cycle to create a learning environment that was responsive to new leaders’ needs and provided the skills needed to support new students coming to the university.

The objective of this study is to identify the reality of e- management at the University of Jeddah and its impact on organizational development through the study of three axes in organizational development: development of the organizational structure, human resources development and the employment of information technology in the university. The study was based on the analytical descriptive approach. A questionnaire was used on a random sample of male and female administrators at the University of Jeddah in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, where the number of those responding to the questionnaire was 60 individuals. The study found that individuals working at the University of Jeddah are aware of the advantages of electronic management and they are familiar with the university's electronic applications such as e- mail and grading programs. There are also obstacles to the application of electronic management, including lack of human and technical capabilities necessary to implement electronic management. The study recommended the development of computerized administrative information systems to cover all administrative aspects, focusing on the development of electronic applications available and linking them to the workers in Jeddah University continuously, in line with the realization of the vision of the Kingdom 2030.

Policy Perceptions

The author of this book is a member of the Egyptian diplomatic servicewith a Ph.D. from the University of Geneva. This study employs carefullydefined concepts, the most important one being Islamism as the politicizationof Islamic symbols. In addition, however, he defines the boundarybetween the internal world of perceptions and the external world that isbeing perceived as the ummah. In so doing, the author logically raises thequestion of the universalism of Islam and the particularism of Egyptiannationalist foreign policy perceptions. It is this carefulness that allows theauthor to tell the story of Islamic ideological perceptions objectively andwithout raising controversies of theological interpretation.The book begins with a historical treatment of the Islamic perceptionof international relations from the foreign policy of the Prophet Muhammadto the formulations of al-Afghani, 'Abduh, and Ri<;ia. He includes inthis survey the organizational development and points of view of the allkhwanal-Muslimm, the al-Jama'at al-Isla.m1yah, and the clandestineorganizations, (e.g., Shabab Mul:tammad, al-Takfir wa al-Hijrah, and alJihad).He then goes on to identify the positions of these organizations onthe internal issues of the Muslim world, e.g., the Iranian revolution, theMuslim world in general, and the attitude toward particular Muslim countries.On the question of the Iranian revolution, the Ikhwan initially supportedit but, as the Iranians attacked it and its leader, al-Tilmasiin1, thissupport cooled. The Ikhwan had less concern with the Shi'ism of theIranian revolution than did the remaining more extreme groups in Egypt.These supported the revolution but had doubts about its Shi'ism.The "external" issue of the Israeli Zionist threat also provides evidenceof relative moderation by the lkhwan. It initially opposed the Egyptian­Israeli peace but then tacitly came to accept it. It also was totally opposedto the normalization of relations with Israel. As the author notes, this positionwas very much in conformity with Egyptian public sentiment. Theother groups, on the other hand, remained adamantly opposed.In general, the Egyptian Muslim organizational point of view offoreign policy naturally responded to international forces. Thus, theywere uniformly opposed to communism and especially the Soviet invasion ...

This paper sets out to develop a robust theory in a largely atheoretical field of study. The increasing importance of entrepreneurship in delivering the ‘Third Mission’ calls for an enhanced understanding of the university entrepreneurship phenomenon, not solely as a subject of academic interest but also to guide the work of practitioners in the field. By adopting a systematic approach to theory building, a model has been derived by integrating theoretical conjectures from corporate entrepreneurship and university entrepreneurship literature. The integrated theoretical model developed locates university entrepreneurship as an organizational process in an entrepreneurial system depicted as an input-process-output model. Characterizations of the entrepreneurial process and system conditions that would justify an institution being classified as an entrepreneurial university are proposed; and the inter-relationships between the system, the system components and moderators of the effectiveness of the system are outlined. The integrated theory described in this paper contributes to academic knowledge and understanding of university entrepreneurship and, equally importantly, presents a model and relationships that can be useful to third-stream practitioners and senior institutional managers. The paper is among the first to derive systematically a theoretical construct for creating and sustaining university entrepreneurship. It should help to stimulate a debate that might add clarity to an increasingly important field of organizational development.
