Australian Journal of Public AdministrationSummary: Differences between public and private management have been studied extensively by comparing sectors, but not�within�cross?sectoral collaborative arrangements. As participants in such arrangements have�actually experienced�both management styles, examining their perceptions of how these styles differ may contribute innovatively to existing literature. This paper compares such perceptions between public and private sector project members (N = 63) involved in four PPPs in the Netherlands. We assess (1) to what extent and under which conditions these project members�view public and private management differently�and (2) how they�evaluate these differences. By triangulating quantitative and qualitative interview data, we examine Boyne's classical hypotheses and find that more than two?thirds of the statements making reference to these hypotheses offer support for them; more so, the vast majority of such statements evaluate sectoral differences negatively. Intriguingly, type of PPP is a stronger determinant of perceived differences than the manager's sector of origin. - Reproduced.
