Partnership Without Diluted Responsibility

Partnerships promise reach, capabilities, and shared risk. At the same time, a blind spot can easily emerge: Because everyone is involved, no one feels responsible for the whole. Corazón de Cacao describes its collaboration with CacaoSource as combining shared values, direct trade, broader reach, and the practical availability of small quantities of cocoa. [1] This is a public self-description of the collaboration, not independent evidence of its impact. For FlameP, the conclusion is that, in addition to a shared purpose, a partnership needs distinct roles, concrete commitments, decision rights, evidence, and a defined way of handling errors and separation.
