Wilson Distinguished Professor Social Entrepreneurship 1 Social Entrepreneurs -”No margin? No mission!” • Social Entrepreneurs use many of the same techniques as the other forms. • The key difference is that their primary goal is to meet social needs rather than financial profit. • However, they do need to make the enterprise financially sustainable and thus they have to attend to revenues, expenses and profits like anyone else. – If there is no margin (profit or surplus), then there is no mission. • They can organize as a non-profit and support the enterprise, at least in part, through charitable donations to the mission. Mother Teresa organized her enterprise in this way. • They can also organize as a for-profit as did Harish Hande, Muhammad Yunas, and d-Light. Entrepreneurship: © 2012 ff -Jack M.

It includes – 1. Social, – 2. Environmental, and – 3) Financial results. • Engaging with the community can sometimes be challenging. In many cases the company may be engaging with individuals who are leading bitter protests towards the company.

    SGVU’s International Journal of Economics and Management Vol : 3 (1) July – Dec. 2016 Sustainable Social Development through Innovations [Understanding Indian Cases] JAYASHREE SADRI AND TRILOK JAIN ABSTRACT “Humanity has the ability to make development sustainable”. This area demonstrates the entrepreneurial efforts undertaken to transform the deprived society of the world which is popularly understood by Parhalad’s Bottom of the Pyramid. Innovation is not just breakthrough in space science, satellite communication, etc. but offering a value proposition than past; when comes the idea of society it provides the sustainability to innovation in the future instead of striving to be right at high cost, it will be appropriate to be flexible and plural at a lower cost. Social entrepreneurs stand at the nexus between development, business and government. They open new markets for the bottom-of-the-pyramid, innovate programs, empower the people they serve, multiply resources and demonstrate their tangible effects for government and other bodies to replicate. The article focuses on various cases and examples of social innovations and entrepreneurs like SELCO, Mann Desi Mahila (MDM), JANARTH and SAATH, which show how innovation and entrepreneurship at the very heart of economically sustainable solutions. And, is an ultimate solution for sustainable social development. Introduction In 1972, the then Prime Minister of India, Mrs Indra Gandhi emphasized at UN Conference on Human Environment at Stockholm, that the removal of poverty is an integral part of the goal of an environmental strategy for the world. The concepts of inter- relatedness, of a shared planet of ‘global citizenship’, and of ‘spaceship earth’ cannot be restricted to environmental issues alone.

  • Harbingers of Change.Pdf
    PREFACE Creating a cadre of social entrepreneurs who can initiate a large number of sustainable social enterprises that help in empowering the marginalized sections of the society is a need today and it is with this motive that EDI houses the Centre for Social Entrepreneurship & CSR. Besides its other interventions, the Institute also commits itself of creating social entrepreneurs to bring about a noticeable social change. It seeks to implement result- oriented activities under the Centre for Social Entrepreneurship. This initiative of documenting success stories is an effort to sing an ode in praise of those who have devoted their lives in the service of people and, in the process, motivate more and more people to opt for social entrepreneurship. There are the people who involve themselves in the process of innovation, adaptation and learning to give a new dimension to livelihood conditions of people and the society must recognize their efforts. This documentation has been undertaken with the objective of creating such as awareness in society. Harbingers of Change, therefore, salute the spirit of volunteerism, unique foresight and perseverance of these individuals. Getting bogged down by functional and bureaucratic hindrances is not the nature of social entrepreneurs; instead they seek alternatives in times of failure of one approach to improve the basic material and social well-being of folks. They recognize the inherent disadvantages rooted in the society and come out with innovative rectification measures that re-shape the social landscape of the country. The cases documented in this book give an insight into this discipline and into the traits of these entrepreneurs.

  • Top 10 Social Entrepreneurship: 1) Mahatma Gandhi
    Top 10 social entrepreneurship: 1) Mahatma Gandhi: Why Gandhi? The Mahatma was a man obsessed with sustainability, being environment friendly, making the best use of local resources, growth of villages, power of cooperatives, promoting local industry and community-driven initiatives. If social entrepreneurs can be described as visionaries who solve old problems with new ways of thinking Gandhi certainly fits the bill. He always spoke of growing local cottage industry, like Khadi, being self-reliant and having the community own enterprises. The best example of his insistence of leveraging local resources and not being depending on imports is his ‘Salt March’ to Dandi, where he called for local production of salt, after there was salt tax levied by the British. Gandhi’s love for Panchayat Raj, empowerment of women and ban of imports can be looked at as seeds of social transformation, sustainability and self-sustaining local communities. 2) Dr Verghese Kurien, father of the India’s milk revolution: Tribhuvandas Kishibhai Patel might have founded The Kaira District Co-operative Milk Producers’ Union (now better known as Amul) in 1946. But if it wasn’t for Varghese Kurien- who had just arrived from the US after pursuing a Master’s Degree- the co-operative would never have become a household name. Kurien’s contribution to the social entrepreneurship movement in India is monumental. Thanks to Kurien’s foresight, planning and execution, India through the ‘white revolution’, went from a milk importing country to the world’s largest producer. In a career spanning close to 60 years, Kurien founded around 30 institutions of excellence like Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF), Institute of Rural Management, Anand (IRMA) and The National Dairy Development Board’s (NDDB).
