Synopsis

ASAE & The Center for Association Leadership's landmark study and publication 7 Measures of Success identified the ability to build effective alliances or partnerships that advance the mission as one of the hallmarks of a remarkable association. But getting a partnership right is an involved undertaking. That's what The Power of Partnership, itself the result of a strategic research collaboration of ASAE & The Center and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, is all about. The book takes a no-nonsense look at the intricacies of establishing successful partnerships between nonprofit organizations, between nonprofits and for-profit companies, and between nonprofit organizations and governmental entities.

This resource hits on all the essential elements individuals or organizations can utilize to achieve more in partnership than they could otherwise achieve alone including the following:

Essentials of Partnering

Readiness: Preparing to Partner

Formalizing the Partnership

Managing the Partnership

Exit Strategies

A special appendix section authored by nonprofit legal experts Jeffrey S. Tenenbaum, Kristen E. Stichler, Ann Thomas, and Aaron H. Hiller provides a general overview of the legal complexities that often come with forging partnerships, maintaining them, and amicably parting ways. The authors have also shared several sample legal agreements.
