520 $a The purpose of this study was to determine the leadership expectations and perceptions of the Florida Farm Bureau Federation. This study was conducted in three parts. The first part was composed of qualitative interviews with seven officials of the Florida Farm Bureau Federation; questions were developed to determine the expectations of state officials of county board members and the necessary leadership skills that county Farm Bureau board members should possess.
520 $a The second part of the study was a quantitative instrument, which was developed from the competencies that came from the first phase of the study. A sample of 280 county Farm Bureau members were given this instrument, which was comprised of four theme areas: leadership, political process, effective boards, and knowledge of Farm Bureau, with a total of 66 competencies. Participants were asked to rate how important each competency was and how proficient it was using a seven point Likert scale. A demographic information section was also included at the end of this instrument.
520 $a The third phase of the study examined why Farm Bureau members may or may not participate in leadership roles, such as serving on their local county Farm Bureau board. A quantitative instrument was developed and included three parts: a motivation sources inventory, a semantic differential scale on volunteering, and a Likert scale, which measured perceptions of serving on county boards. This instrument also had a demographic information section at the end. The instrument was sent to a random sample of 420 active Farm Bureau members.
520 $a From the results of the county board member instrument, it was found that the largest "gap" between importance and proficiency competencies was in the political process area. Active board members were found to be motivated by internal self-concept factors and rated the evaluative factors of volunteering the highest. This study found that the best model for explaining why Farm Bureau members chose to participate in leadership roles explained 36% of the variance and included the independent variables: volunteering evaluative factor, volunteering activity factor, number of Farm Bureau events attended, member of other youth development organizations and participation in leadership development programs.
