Abstract

The social, physical, and institutional environment in which Extension staff members function is characterized by increasing variety and complexity. Consequently, new Extension practices are required. One such practice, teamwork, is analyzed in this article. A new definition of teamwork is stated, with guidelines for implementing it. Problems of gaining staff commitment are identified, and conditions are described that contribute to team efforts to solve problems.
