Assessing collaborative capacity in a multidimensional world - Thousand Oaks : SAGE, April 2007
Collaborative capacity is central to long-term problem-solving success and poses a challenge for public management scholarsHow does one measure collaborative capacity? The authors treat collaborative capacity as an outcome and develop a multidimensional collaborative capacity assessment framework that measures whether capacity is enhanced, stays the same, or is diminished. The framework is applied to two collaborations involving endangered species in the United States. Although traditional measures of compliance show little difference, the full framework finds a stark contrast in long-term problem-solving capacity. One case evinces high overall capacity, whereas the second case registers low, even diminished, capacity
