    while not what i think of as a 'collective' in a classic sense, your description is exactly what i do now, and have been for a couple years. it works in various fashions, but basically i assemble teams of appropriate skill compliments/overlap for various projects and lead them as a participant.

    in the US anyway, there is no offical 'collective' status i have ever been able to find to serve as a blanket for anyone you include. in other countries, yes. basically, everyone works as a sub to me and i file appropriate documents when it comes to uncle sam. i wish, wish, wish that i could set up something outside of the corporate tax model that would represent this, but alas, the US tax structure does not allow for this..... that i have found, that is.
