EVENTS

The Initiative on Collaborative Government will host a series of 2008 events on "Collaboration: An Effective Tool for Government Executives." These events will provide public-sector, private sector and non-profit leaders a forum for discussing mission challenges and potential collaborative government solutions. For the first series of events each seminar will examine a different type of collaboration. Seminars will consist of senior government executives who will participate in a discussion with an expert speaker and Federal government executive panelists.

The Initiative's summer 2008 event series includes the following seminar topics:

Managing Effective Collaboration with Multiple Service Providers – This seminar will look into applicable lessons in successfully managing multiple service providers and discuss their applicability to the federal government where agencies manage a blend of commercial service providers, in-house service providers, and services provided by other government agencies.
