Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les entreprises sociales et solidaires partagent une même ambition : mettre leur projet entrepreneurial au service de l'Homme. Elles combinent ainsi leur démarche économique avec une finalité sociale et/ou une gouvernance participative. Qu'y a-t-il de plus exaltant que de transformer en réalité un projet commun, bâti en direction des autres ? C'est dans cet esprit qu'ont travaillé les auteurs. La 1re partie est consacrée à la situation actuelle de l'économie sociale et solidaire en France : son périmètre, ses structures, les emplois qu'elle représente, les activités qu'elle recouvre et son poids économique - 10% du PIB ! Dans la 2e partie, sont passées en revue les étapes incontournables du projet social et solidaire, puis présentées (et comparées) toutes les structures envisageables (associations, fondations, coopératives, mutuelles, SIAE...) ainsi que les différentes aides et subventions. La 3e partie est réservée à la gouvernance, à la gestion et au management d'une structure : savoir gérer des tensions constructives et les différents statuts, mobiliser et fidéliser les personnels, se préparer au rôle d'entrepreneur social et solidaire, se faire aider et, enfin, savoir évaluer son projet.

Download or read book Building a Successful Social Venture written by Eric Carlson and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book on creating and running a social enterprise to combine theoretical discussions with current cases from around the world, filling a huge gap in the literature. It serves as an eminently practical blueprint for those who wish to build, sustain, and grow social ventures. Building a Successful Social Venture draws on Eric Carlson's and James Koch's pioneering work with the Global Social Benefit Institute, cofounded by Koch at Santa Clara University's Miller Center for Social Entrepreneurship. Since 2003, over 200 Silicon Valley executives have mentored more than 800 aspiring social entrepreneurs at the GSBI. It is this unparalleled real-world foundation that truly sets the book apart. Early versions of the book were used in both undergraduate and MBA classes. Part 1 of the book describes the assumptions that the GSBI model is based on: a bottom-up approach to social change, a focus on base-of-the-pyramid markets, and a specific approach to business planning developed by the GSBI. Part 2 presents the seven elements of the GSBI business planning process, and Part 3 lays out the keys to executing it. The book includes "Social Venture Snapshots" illustrating how different organizations have realized elements of the plan, as well as a wealth of checklists and exercises. Social ventures hold enormous promise to solve some of the world's most intractable problems. This book offers a tested framework for students, social entrepreneurs, and field researchers who wish to learn more about the application of business principles and theories of change for advancing social progress and creating a more just world.

Download or read book A Financial Guide for Social Entrepreneurs written by Collectif, and published by Die Keure Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides what it promises to the reader, i.e. A financial guide for social entrepreneurs. It departs from the challenges that social entrepreneurs face to fund their ventures. We discuss three main challenges in this context: 1. Access to funding; 2. Complexity of business models; 3. Predominant focus on social impact. This book offers an overview of the different funding possibilities while presenting the main funding actors in Belgium as an illustration. Yet, we think that more is needed to survive the financial wilderness of social entrepreneurship. Therefore, we advise attention to a solid business model, supportive ecosystem, impact measurement and effective communication. The illustrative case studies and the presentation of ecosystem actors that can provide support to social entrepreneurs make this book a quite practical guide. All cases and ecosystem actors presented here come from the Belgian context, which is what we know best. We are confident that this Belgian view can inspire the international community as well. This book could be useful to social entrepreneurs, impact investors, universities, vocational training centers, corporates supporting social entrepreneurs, social impact incubators and accelerators, policymakers or everyone who wants to help a social enterprise in their journey. And please enjoy reading, our societies need more social entrepreneurship! ABOUT THE AUTORS Nikolay Detchev.

Download or read book Mission Inc written by Kevin Lynch and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2009-01-19 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business has the power to change the world, but some businesses embrace that opportunity more aggressively than others do. Social enterprises put their change mission first – what they sell or what service they provide is a means to accomplishing a larger goal, rather than an end in itself. Their front-and-center commitment to doing good makes social enterprises immensely attractive. But if you want to run one successfully, you have to manage a tricky balancing act. How can you be as efficient as any of your for-profit or nonprofit competitors while at the same time staying true to your social purpose? In this groundbreaking guide, social entrepreneurs Kevin Lynch and Julius Walls draw on their own extensive experiences and those of twenty other social enterprise leaders to focus on the fundamental blocking and tackling tactics that make the difference between success and failure. Exploring the many paradoxes that can hamstring social enterprises, the authors explain how starting and running a social enterprise requires leaders to adopt an entirely different mindset and often a wholly different perspective on the day-to-day choices they’re forced to make. Likewise, Walls and Lynch help readers grapple with a different set of expectations from employees, investors, customers, and the community. For social enterprise practitioners, these expectations present an added layer of difficulty – but they can also offer unique advantages, which the authors explain how to leverage. Whether readers are looking for guidance on finding and hiring talent, marketing, finances, or scaling, this practical, accessible guide offers clear and compelling answers that light the way.
