TNDY 404O - Collaboration Across the Public-Private Divide

This course explores how to design, lead, and manage public-private partnerships. We examine theoretical approaches from many disciplines, as well as experience from around the world, to analyze various forms of collaboration among governments, businesses, and citizens. We consider the practical challenges of making such partnerships work, using outstanding case studies. Along the way, we reconsider the meaning and practice of public policy and management. Examples are drawn from public health, education, international development, urban renewal, infrastructure, minimum-wage reforms, anti-corruption initiatives, and more.
