6<br />

<strong>High</strong>-performance cross-sector partnerships can<br />

occur anywhere geographically—national,<br />

regional, state, local, or neighborhood. Indeed,<br />

those featured in this report range from a single<br />

building to the entire nation. The needs, assets,<br />

and environments differ widely from one<br />

community to the next, whether the<br />

communities are 100 people or 250 million.<br />

Community conditions influence any initiative.<br />

Yet every high-performance partnership must<br />

conquer the challenges <strong>of</strong> the six defining<br />

characteristics <strong>of</strong> such endeavors. These<br />

characteristics may take on different aspects,<br />

demands, or criteria as the scope changes.<br />

6. Special thanks to Spencer Schron and<br />

Lindsey Cometa, CMS, for their tremendous<br />

efforts in developing and refining<br />

this chapter.
