On developing relationships and visions
10. How do we develop trust between the public and the private sectors?
- Seek to establish ways in which understanding between sectors can lead to building trust and confidence.
- Make personal face to face contact
- Share the motivations of the different players – including your own for getting the private sector involved.
11. What does the public sector need to understand about the private sector?
- That the sector is not homogeneous – different roles, different interests, different subsectors, different skills to contribute to regeneration, e.g.
– Site development
– Labour skills
– Employment
– Retail development
– VVNew economy/re-imaging of neighbourhood
– Culture and the arts
– Service delivery (e.g. health care).
- That on the whole, the private sector has no necessary incentive to put itself forward to be part of a partnership.
- Their strengths, weaknesses and what they can and want to bring to the process.
- That regeneration can bring them benefits as well as for the neighbourhood.
- That many of them do not like public sector strategy processes – too much talk and not enough action!

Copenhagen: In the business network it was realised that the development of trust be-tween the partners had to be based on information, understanding and face to face meetings. Therefore the network meets at least twice each year and six times per year distributes a newsletter. The businesses in the network are now starting to use each other and contact one another for information instead of just seeing the others as competitors. At the same time the gap of understanding between the partners from the public sector and the private sector is getting smaller as they come to understand and accept the different standpoints. |
