Collaboration for Change: Why Collaboration is Essential for Social Entrepreneurs...But Not as Easy as It Looks

By Jon Huggett

Social enterprises are by nature social organizations that require collaboration and cooperation with a wide range of individuals, organizations, governments, networks, and other businesses. They build a more just, sustainable world by applying market-based strategies to today's social problems. This book will highlight the need-to-knows regarding why collaboration is important, how to do it, and the challenges to be encountered.It is about collaboration for social enterprises: why it is hot, why it is not as easy as it looks, and how it can often become counter-productive. The book will help leaders pick and craft collaboration that drives social change, and avoid efforts that, in practice, cement problems, despite the best of intent.
