Many organizations view partnerships and collective action as a key lever. But partnerships are inherently complex. They require alignment across organizations, navigating different incentives and power dynamics, and sustaining momentum long after the initial energy has faded.
This webinar shared insights and case examples on how partnerships can become more effective, sustain over time, and deliver tangible, systems-level outcomes.
The speakers were:
- Sujata Rathi, Director, FSG
- Vignesh Shankar, Managing Director, FSG
- Carola Tembe, Programme Director, Collective Action, H&M Foundation
Together, they explored:
- Why partnerships often fall short of their promise
- When a partnership adds value, and when it does not
- A spectrum of partnership models
- Lessons from building and supporting complex collaborations
- Five principles for effective collaboration, and how each applies across different partnership models
