From Networks to Collaboration
Networking: Involves communication and information exchange for mutual benefit
Coordinated Network: In addition to exchanging information, it involves aligning/altering activities so that more efficient results are achieved.
Cooperation: Involves not only information exchange and adjustment of activities, but also sharing resources for achieving compatible goals.
Collaboration: A process in which entities share information, resources and responsibilities to jointly plan, implement and evaluate a program of activities to achieve a common goal. Collaboration is always in view of an agreed result, objective or end state
• Cooperation can be passive
• Collaboration is always active
