APPENDIX M FOURTH LETTER TO COUNTY BOARD MEMBERS Date Name Address 1 City, State, Postal Code Dear ~Name-, About three weeks ago, we wrote to you seeking your opinions about your expectations and perceptions about leadership and what it takes to be an effective county board member. As of today, we have not received your completed questionnaire. We realize that you may not have had time to complete it. However, we would genuinely appreciate hearing from you. The study is being conducted so that county Farm Bureau board members like yourself, can help in the development of future programs offered for county board members. Your name was randomly selected from a list of all county board members in Florida. We are writing to you again because the study's usefulness depends on our receiving a questionnaire from each respondent. In the event that your questionnaire has been misplaced, a replacement is enclosed. We would be happy to answer any questions you have about the study. Please email me at hscarter(i)nail.ifas.ufl.edu or call me at (352) 264-9777. Thank you very much for your assistance. Sincerely, Hannah Carter Graduate Student Department of Agricultural Education and Communication University of Florida
