Chapter Chapter 3 in The Politics of Partnerships, 2010, pp 53-91 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The chapter presents Earthwatch and Rio Tinto, The Prince’s Trust and the Royal Bank of Scotland within the partnership case studies. Each relationship is introduced through a brief overview of the partnership. The organisational characteristics of each case study organisation are highlighted in order to identify the types of NPOs and BUS participating within each partnership relationship. Following from the above the evolution of the relationship is presented through the historical perspective of the interactions. Furthermore the motives of each partner organisation are analysed and compared within each case study in order to address whether the motives are shared between the partners. The discussion of the chapter compares the findings of the two in-depth case studies with 35 interviews that were conducted within 29 organisations in order to confirm or disconfirm the findings on the formation stage of partnerships.
