The Guide is a basic resource for individuals and organizations who wish to build, strengthen or sustain a network. It will assist you or your organization in understanding what motivates people and organizations to network; important steps to take in making the network work for its members; and action that can be taken to address some of the challenges that are typically encountered in networks.
The Guide was written to be useful to those who are involved in both informal and formal networks. Only Chapter 5 - Governing Body and Staff Issues in Formalized Networks - is specific to formal networks.
