12. Partnerships that works
A Partnership is likely to be
ineffective if…
 Partners do not share the same values and interests. This can make agreements
on partnership goals difficult.
 There is no sharing of risk, responsibility, accountability or benefits.
 The inequalities in partners’ resources and expertise determine their relative
influence in the partnership’s decision making.
 One person or partner has all the power and/or drives the process.
 There is a hidden motivation which is not declared to all partners.
 The partnership was established just to “keep up appearances’’.
 Partnership members do not have the training to identify issues or resolve
internal conflicts.
 Partners are not chosen carefully, particularly if it is difficult to “de-partner”.
