For the second year I will be teaching a course in social entrepreneurship at the MIT Sloan School of Management beginning January 23. I am planning to use the first half of my new book as part of the teaching materials. Will be very interesting to get feedback from the students.
The first half of the book deals with:
- Why social entrepreneurship emerged as a new business model at the end of the 20th century
- Discusses entrepreneurial and non-profit business models as major influences on social entrepreneurship
- Defines social entrepreneurship
- Describes the three business models for social entrepreneurship
For the sake of completeness, the second half of the book deals with how to successfully scale a social entrepreneurship venture. Many of the points are illustrated by examples from OLPC.
Anybody who wants to meet up in Boston should let me know.
