A Guide to Successful Partnerships (Adapted from OECD LEED Report, www.oecd.org/cfe/leed/forum/partnerships) A partnership is an agreement to do something together that will benefit all involved, bringing results that could not be achieved by one person working alone. A successful partnership enhances the impact and effectiveness of what the partners do together, promotes innovation and is distinguished by a strong commitment from each partner. Partnerships will only be effective if all partners share a strategic vision and agree on how to achieve common targets.

One essential step in building a partnership is to ensure that everyone involved knows what the partnership is about, who is doing what, and which outcomes are expected.
