Couverture de l’ouvrage Creating Conditions for Promising Collaboration
This publication focuses on the conditions for promising collaboration. Collaboration is becoming a dominant instrument in today's economy and society and manifests itself in many shapes and forms. It is a challenging instrument which still isn't very well understood and poses the business community in front of a number of challenging dilemma's. We position collaboration as a multidisciplinary phenomenon and - based on years of research and as reflective practitioners - offer a comprehensive model for analyzing and designing collaborative processes that is both scientifically rooted and applicable in practice. A better understanding of collaborative processes will enhance the success of alliances, networks, chains and strategic partnerships. In addition to this we look to the future of organizing from a collaborative perspective and address the challenges ahead.
Introduction.- Collaboration: A Fundamental Capability in Society and Organization.- Essential Conditions for Promising Collaboration.- Future Perspectives on Collaboration.

Edwin Kaats and Wilfrid Opheij, both management consultants and researchers, specialize in collaboration between organizations. Their discipline is the science and practice of connecting people and organizations. They help to improve the way collaboration -in alliances, networks, chains and partnerships- work by providing advice on the subject, by directing the processes, by lecturing, by researching the field, and by publishing about it. They were the co-authors of the book, Organizing in between, design and governance of inter-organizational relations (2005), and many articles on cooperation and the capacity to connect. They earned their PhDs with the co-authored doctoral thesis, Executives make sense of alliances and networks (Tilburg University, 2008). Their book, Learning to Collaborate between Organizations, was published in 2012, and was honored with the Dutch Management Book of the year award in 2013. Both are partners in Twynstra Gudde Adviseurs en Managers, member of the management consulting partnership, Cordence Worldwide.
