Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to examine the important role of cross-sector partnerships and collaboration in global emergency management, relevant in situations such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and grand global challenges. The paper utilizes exploratory historical methods and examines cross-sector partnerships from three key emerging markets. The context of the emerging markets is important given the institutional fragility such markets encountered. The authors also highlight the instrumental role of adaptive learning in cross-sector partnerships, which can help multiple stakeholders create and deliver value in response to an emergency like a global health pandemic caused by the COVID-19. Finally, this paper offers theoretical and practical implications for cross-sector collaboration and partnerships in response to the global crisis. This research is limited to emerging markets context and further research is needed on this important topic. There are relatively limited research studies on the cross-sector partnerships and their role in global emergencies, grand challenges and global crisis, thus this paper offers important insights on cross-sector partnerships and their value creation in global crisis situations.
