The Consortia Century

The Consortia Century makes the bold prediction that consortia, spanning diverse stakeholders, will be the defining institutional arrangement of the 21st Century. Consortia are not new, but will become increasingly important for addressing complex societal challenges, which exceed the capacity of any single organization or institutional actor. The book presents supporting case examples and provides a model for achieving sufficient stakeholder alignment for collective action - enabling interdependent individuals, groups, and organizations to accomplish together what they cannot do separately.
