Abstract (type = abstract)
This study explored collaborative network effectiveness in Public Administration through the perceptions of diverse groups of network members in Haiti. “Collaborative network” is defined in the network literature as a set of government agencies, non-profit, and for-profit entities that work together to provide a public good or service (or value) when a single public agency is unable to deliver the good or service; or, the private sector is unable or unwilling to do so on its own. “Network effectiveness,” on the other hand, receives various competing meanings in the corresponding literature, depending, for example, on what is being assessed and the benchmark or measure of effectiveness. This study was an exploratory qualitative case study aimed at attempting to provide ways to better understand and explain collaborative network effectiveness in public administration. It had used a multi-layered method of data collection comprised of 4 individual interviews, 4 focus groups, an online survey, and a series of observation sessions. This methodological approach served as the primary means of validating the results of the study. It had further served as the basis for answering the 4 sub-questions and the central research question: “How can we better understand and explain collaborative network effectiveness in Public Administration?” In addition, drawing on the perspectives of the study participants, it was further intended to attempt to better understand some of the primary factors leading to the effectiveness or the ineffectiveness of a publicly funded collaborative network. Emergent insights led to the tentative conclusion that collaborative network effectiveness in the realm of publicly funded activities is a function of several internal and external factors. Thus, to better understand network effectiveness in the realm of Public Administration, regardless of their level of significance, all of those factors should be considered as integral components in constructing related theoretical frameworks and models intended to explain network relationships, processes, and ultimately the outcomes of networked activities.
