Knowledge and the sharing of knowledge form the core of Extension…
Therefore encouraging individuals to seek out, make sense of, contextualize, and share new knowledge is critical to the success of our organization.

If knowledge is the currency of Extension, then
individuals must be encouraged…
to seek out new sources of knowledge, place it within the
context of their work….
and share with others within and outside of our
organization

“The first step is get everyone working out loud. If work is not worth discussing, why
bother doing it, especially as less of it is routine?”

PLNS:
Span boundaries between
and within organizations
Are not restricted by
geography or time
Allow individuals to learn what
they need, when they need
Lead to connections with
diverse people and resources
Help people make sense of
large flow of information
Foster cooperation and
collaboration
