Opis

The proliferation of giant multi-organizational agencies in the last decade has fostered a rethinking of inter-organizational interactions. By synthesizing emerging planning theories with the most recent research in the field, How Organizations Act Together offers a unique and comprehensive perspective on how modern organizations interact. From missions to the moon to management and modern public policy, Alexander unravels the complexities of interorganizational coordination, providing students and scholars with the tools for understanding.

Recenzje

"Alexander's treatment of interorganizational coordination [IOC] will be a great contribution to those interested in learning how societal level partnerships can address issues which transcend the boundaries of the focal organization."
