We often hear about the power of collaboration. It is good to find examples. One example appeared in a recent issue of Public Administration Review. The short article by David Wang is entitled “A Simple Lesson about the Power of Collaboration.” He describes a collaboration among farm workers, growers, and buyers. The lessons include having a vision for how the collaboration could work, sticking with that vision over the long-run, receiving some outside support, and building trusting relationships. You can find the article on page 444 of Volume 74, Issue 4.
