title: Managerial partnerships. The wave of the future?
abstract: Although managerial partnerships are becoming more common in healthcare organizations, very little is available in the literature regarding a practical, concrete methodology for ensuring success of the relationship. The authors explore the nature of managerial partnerships and the perils and pitfalls of forming these relationships. Experiences from successful and failing partnerships will be used to identify the essential elements of healthy partnerships. Key steps and principles for creating a successful partnership are identified.
