Partnership Development

“The sum of the parts is greater than the whole…”

In conjunction with the release of a new publication, Extending the Possible Through Partnership, Plexus offers associations the opportunity to put best practice partnership strategies to work. Plexus experts in partnership formation, creative resource development, and sustainability will help associations identify and explore partnership options in line with the most successful and creative models and concepts presented in the book.

Recognizing Opportunities

Partnerships provide the means to expand the reach of one partner by leveraging resources and strengths. Plexus will work with you to determine how to achieve those goals that seem beyond your reach through strategic use of partnerships, including how to build:

• Inspiration for the Partnership
• Alignment with Strategic Growth
• Potential Partners
• Partnership Scope

Forming the Relationship

Each partner brings specific talent and resources to the table. Plexus will formulate this into a partnership plan for operation that maximizes each partner’s potential to contribute and specifies how the partnership will move forward, including how to establish:

• Shared Mission and Focus
• Leveraged Resources
• Commitment and Communication
• Roles and Responsibilities
• Legal Guidelines and Agreements

Troubleshooting

• Common Pitfalls
• Leadership Challenges
• Competition and Contention

Long-term Sustainability and Growth

To ensure that your partnership will continue to expand and provide benefits for all partners, Plexus will help formulate plans for:
