Abstract

The relationship between collaborative governance and performance is complex. There is contradictory evidence regarding the effectiveness of collaboration as a managerial strategy to improve organizational performance. The level of diversity in the context in which the collaboration unfolds could be an explanation for contradictory findings. This study uses economic diversification as a measure of the change in diversity of the collaborative context and tests whether municipalities with economies that depend more on different industries benefit more from inter-municipal partnerships to bring international aid to their communities. The study uses data from 215 Ecuadorian municipalities between 2007 and 2013. Results confirm that inter-municipal partnerships, a type of collaborative governance, it is an effective managerial strategy and that economic diversification positively moderates the effect of collaboration on organizational performance. 

Keyphrases: collaborative governance regimes, collaborative innovation, international aid, performance dimensions
