我们提供了一个接地模型，用于分析跨部门社会伙伴关系的形成，以了解为什么企业和非营利组织越来越多地合作解决社会问题。我们的模型引入了组织特征，组织动机和合作伙伴互动的历史作为关键因素，表明社会变革的潜力。我们认为，组织特征，动机和互动的历史表明变革能力，变革的意图和变革的经验，分别。这三个因素共同构成一个框架，有助于及早发现不必要的伙伴关系努力，并提供伙伴变革潜力的指标。此外，我们讨论了互惠的，多层次的性质变化的社会伙伴关系，通过组织之间的相互作用，个人和社会层面的现实。伙伴关系的形成阶段有助于伙伴关系和企业社会责任（CSR）文献，通过将其置于揭示其动态及其实现组织和社会变革的潜力的历史背景中，深入了解组织的早期互动。
We provide a grounded model for analysing formation in cross sector social partnerships to understand why business and nonprofit organizations increasingly partner to address social issues. Our model introduces organizational characteristics, organizational motives and history of partner interactions as critical factors that indicate the potential for social change. We argue that organizational characteristics, motives and the history of interactions indicate transformative capacity, transformative intention and transformative experience, respectively. Together, these three factors consist of a framework that aids early detection of unnecessary partnering efforts and provide indicators of partners’ transformative potential. Further we discuss the reciprocal, multi-level nature of change in social partnerships through the interplay between the organizational, individual and social levels of reality. The formation stage of partnerships contributes to the partnership and corporate social responsibility (CSR) literatures a deep understanding of the organisations’ early interactions by placing within a historical context that reveals their dynamics and their potential to deliver organisational and social change.
