Abstract:

A model of team-based philosophy is applied to test the efficacy of a partnership between a university and

a regional social enterprise development agency during the set-up and development of a work-integration

social enterprise (WISE). The research had three data collection phases ‘early’, ‘middle’ and ‘late’.

Analysis of interview data collected during the ‘early’ phase of this research evaluation revealed five

themes: ‘Communication’, ‘Unity’, ‘Concept and Planning’, ‘Personalities’ and ‘Personal Perceptions’.

These interim research findings are discussed in relation to the proposed model and its appropriateness

for the evaluation task.
