Understanding Horizontal Governance
Research Brief | Published in 2009
Horizontal governance is an umbrella term that covers a range of approaches to policy

It replaces hierarchical leadership with collaboration, coordination, shared responsibility for decisions and outcomes, and a willingness to work through consensus.
