Answer preview

Altogether, a valuable lesson that an individual can learn about collaborative governance is the importance of understanding the integrative framework in this arrangement. As such, comprehending the system context, collaborative actions, and collaborative dynamics, which include principle entanglement joint action abilities and shared motivation, is relevant. With that, collaborative governance would be possible in a public sector case like the Land and Water Forum (Eppel, 2013). As seen in the case, stakeholders needed to identify strategic ways of improving the environment; however, this could not have been achieved without collaboration, cooperation, and coordination. According to Keast, Brown, and Mandell (2007), these three factors are necessary for decision-making processes that include external stakeholders. Such considerations influence the development of workable solutions based on the issues raised.
