Collaboration is a continuum of opportunities (Creighton, 2005). As an emerging and frequently sought out practice, forms of collaboration among stakeholders from disparate organizations is evolving into a popular strategy to manage the negative impact of declining or limited resources and increased demands for service. Public organizations, especially, are engaged in efforts to share resources and assets to successfully navigate the changing environment without compromising their ability to accomplish the mission. Because there is insufficient evidence to describe the aspects of collaboration within public-sector departments, this dissertation examines the factors that either promote or hinder intradepartmental collaboration for the purposes of improving the state of the field of practice.

Collaboration is a continuum of opportunities (Creighton, 2005). As an emerging and frequently sought out practice, forms of collaboration among stakeholders from disparate organizations is evolving into a popular strategy to manage the negative impact of declining or limited resources and increased demands for service. Public organizations, especially, are engaged in efforts to share resources and assets to successfully navigate the changing environment without compromising their ability to accomplish the mission. Because there is insufficient evidence to describe the aspects of collaboration within public-sector departments, this dissertation examines the factors that either promote or hinder intradepartmental collaboration for the purposes of improving the state of the field of practice.

The findings unearth insight about collaboration in an era of resource scarcity and economic uncertainty within three departments---Health, Library, and Planning and Public Works---at one public organization: Yolo County. This dissertation asks two questions: 1) What internal organizational factors contribute to intradepartmental collaboration? 2) How do external factors---those outside of an organization---impact the degree and quality of intradepartmental collaboration?

To answer the questions, a modified version of the Wilder Collaboration Factors Inventory (CFI) was used to assess perspectives and attitudes toward collaboration practice within departments. Arranged by respondents' department, tenure, age, gender, and position, the analysis depicts the impact of the following six factors on intradepartmental collaboration: environmental conditions, communication, purpose, membership characteristics, process and structure, and resources. Findings from the study inform a series propositions designed to improve intradepartmental collaboration practice in the public sector.

In summary, survey responses suggest that the role one plays, either as manager or non-manager, in a department influences the degree to which they interpret the factors that advance effective joint action. Survey responses suggested that economic uncertainty and resource instability drove managers to implement less than inclusive, though efficient practices at the expense of hindering opportunities to effectively leverage internal capacity and uncover strategic blind spots. Due to the nature of their roles, managers and non-managers experience economic- and resource-related crises differently; as a result of the recent financial downturn, survey responses indicated that managerial priorities at Yolo County shifted away from participatory and inclusive approaches toward those that favor structure, maximize resources, and quickly respond to needs. Responses present opportunities for public administrators---regardless of their role in an organization---to consider strategies and tactics that leverage a strong, prevalent sense of purpose to promote inclusive decision-making, establish open and informal communication mechanisms between and among managers and non-managers, assess and address capacity deficiencies, and manage the pace of growth.
