Working with other organisations to improve performance

About this course

This course provides a step-by-step framework for determining whether organisations should be collaborating or undertaking a major restructure, such as a merger with another organisation and how that might best be undertaken.

It brings together the best of existing knowledge and theory on collaborations and strategic restructuring, presenting the material in a succinct format that is quick and easy to understand. It also provides a body of resources that users can explore when they need further information and support.

This course does not aim to promote collaborations or strategic restructuring. The needs of each organisation are unique and collaborations or strategic restructuring may or may not be the right strategic choice.
