how to build a partnership
Partnership working is a requirement of almost all renewal and regeneration initiatives. As partnership fatigue sets in, however, it is essential to invest in partnership building in order to achieve a balance of both inclusiveness and effectiveness. Key issues include: deciding on who should be members, and recruiting them; setting up the mechanisms that enable partnerships to work effectively and set standards of behaviour; and sharing power and engaging minority interests - making sure that the more influential partners do not dominate; developing the capacity of all the partners to play a full part in the activities of the partnership; and communication and accountability - letting those outside the partnership know what is going on.
