Beskrivning
Partnerships are often implemented in various ways, often without considering the impact, process or systemic performance and governance level of the partnership itself. The current bank of knowledge also offers little about complex partnership performance logics and multi-level governance across sectors. Partnership concerns can often be predominately focused on opportunistic business goals and benefits rather than the systemic partnering process itself. But partnerships do not operate in a vacuum. This book leads with the idea that partnerships can drive change. It argues that current partnership practices may impede sustainable business benefits and increase risk through a disregard for excellence, the ethics of care, and consideration for how partnership performance can directly affect corporate value and public value. The book utilizes comprehensive critical analyses and collaborative strategies to help readers learn how to formulate, integrate, implement, and monitor partnership performance. The book concludes that business and global development concerns are not independent of partnership concerns. Concise Guides to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals comprises 17 short books, each examining one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The series provides an integrated assessment of the SDGs from economic, legal, social, environmental and cultural perspectives.

The author explores the impact and role of global partnership sustainable development change initiatives in the context of various types of partnerships in making progress toward the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 17 and improving partnership performance. She contends that current partnership practices may hinder sustainable business benefits through a disregard for excellence and a lack of deeper knowledge of how partnerships can impact corporate and public value. She examines partnership types, trends, models, collaborative knowledge creation processes, activities, and patterns and describes how to formulate, integrate, implement, and monitor partnership performance. She discusses key areas that have been overlooked, current partnership performance trends and projections of change and transformation across sectors, and current guidelines for improving partnership performance. She addresses the definition of partnerships; cooperative value and knowledge creation and the challenges of collaborative governance performance in private-public and cross-sector partnerships; stakeholder tools and policies; examples of partnerships and the institutional factors and global partnership development challenges that contribute to success or failure; collective intelligence and regulatory practices; partnership intervention strategies through innovation, risk management, and governance mechanisms; and areas that have been overlooked in the pursuit of the objectives of sustainable development, including partnership performance and governance, the common good and cross-border partnerships among government, business, and society, and environmental, social, and governance investing.
