"Must reading for anyone involved in improving schools or communities. Sarason and Lorentz identify a vital catalyst for orchestrating change effectively--one that is a promising as it is overlooked." --Eric Schaps, president, Developmental Studies Center, Oakland, California "Sarason and Lorentz have extAnded their earlier work on resource networks to create what may well become the classic work on coordination and collaboration in organizations in general and schools in particular." --Dale L. Brubaker, professor, University of North Carolina, Greensboro "For anyone who is struggling with the real world implications of collaboration and coordination in the human services, Crossing Boundaries is an invaluable practical guide by authors who have blazed these trails and know the territory." --Jacquelyn McCroskey, associate professor, University of Southern California School of Social Work

Synopsis
Attempts to "reinvent" government bureaucracies and private sector organizations often result in the pooling of resources to compensate for decreased funding. These collaborations appear to be a likely solution to the problem of limited resources, so why do these well-intentioned efforts so often fail? In this timely and provocative book, Seymour Sarason and Elizabeth Lorentz offer a penetrating analysis of the pitfalls and possibilities inherent in collaborations between and within organizations. They present a new paradigm for the management of people and resources and show how organizational collaborations can be successful. Crossing Boundaries is based on decades of experience using a resource sharing model in both the private and public sectors. Illustrated with examples from both arenas, the book explains why effective collaboration hinges on rethinking of organizational roles and structures. Traditionally, people are treated as "organizational chart" resources'workers are pigeonholed, and are not to stray from the confines of their carefully crafted job descriptions. True collaboration and resource exchange between organizations requires the creation of a new role, a network coordinator, who serves as a critical bridge between and across organizations. The authors describe the characteristics of the ideal coordinator and explain how this resource exchange energizes and reinforces collegiality and a sense of community. As organizations continue to reinvent themselves, Crossing Boundaries provides the missing link in the quest for effective change., Once again, Sarason leads the way, with a unique and provocative perspective on organizational collaboration. In this penetrating work, Sarason and Lorenz tackle the problem of decreased in schools and health and social service agencies. They show how collaboration between organizations can work, and how this pooling of resources can add up to more than the sum of parts. The authors the role of networks for maximizing the use of resources, the special role and characteristics of a network coordinator, and the energy and sense of community that will result., Once again, Sarason leads the way, with a unique and provocative perspective on organizational collaboration. In this penetrating work, Sarason and Lorenz tackle the problem of decreased in schools and health and social service agencies.
