As recommended by the OECD partnering guidelines, the co-ordinators of the partnership shoud be nominated by the partners. A partner should bring a specific asset and knowledge to the table to act for the common partnership objective (have a deep understanding of the situation and be willing to collaborate) but should also have a minimal personal motivation to join this partnership effort; as well as certain skills in terms of working in a diverse team. Also, when the candidate is selected (or even before), rules of conduct should be established for all partners to abide by them (e.g. good communication between actors, regular attendance of meetings, continuity of personnel, regular transfer of information among the partners).
