Annotation | There is a fund of practical and theoretical advice on how to work effectively in collaboration, but in reality outcomes are often disappointing. This paper explores aspects that frequently derail well-intended collaborative endeavours. It draws on research on integration in health and social care in Wales to highlight four particular areas of concern: motivation and meaning; capacity and capability; learning; and conceptualising and measuring success. Arguing that better management of these factors should improve overall effectiveness, it concludes with a plea for greater understanding of the complex interplay between structural factors and the influences of individuals.
