About this title

Synopsis

In the context of complex social and economic conditions that challenge organizations, there is a growing need to find another way of operating. Creating Partnerships answers that need by offering wise insights and practical steps for creating a more innovative, smarter, and healthier workplace. This book takes aim at those exhausting power struggles that no one really wins in the end by explaining the "Partnership Model" and providing both successful organizational and timeless, mythic examples. It also describes transitioning from "power-over" to "power-with," how to be a "Partnering Leader," and how to find "Common Ground," so that organizations can transform conflicts, achieve authentic and enduring teamwork, and thereby be more effective and realize sustainable operational results.
