| Tiivistelmä: | This article focuses on the minerals industry with companies currently facing the challenge of matching corporate drivers for strategic partnership (henceforth as: p-ship/s) with community needs for programmes contributing to local and regional sustainability. It is herein argued that applying the management concept of 'investment performance' to corporate-community p-ship/s requires questioning traditional evaluation methods focusing on the results of programmes or activities. A case study approach is used to introduce an evaluation framework considering performance from both corporate and community perspectives and conceptualizing p-ship/s performance including four aspects: 1. the contribution of the p-ship to the overall portfolio of a company's community investment programmes, 2. the appropriateness of the p-ship model, 3. the effectiveness of the partnering relationship, and 4. the ability of the partners to achieve programme goals. |
