GRAND CHALLENGES: A WORKSHOP FOR SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURS
I am delighted to invite you to a Workshop Evening for Social Entrepreneurs
Venue: Portal, 1st Floor Trinity Business School, Pearse Street, Trinity College Dublin
Date: Tuesday, October 8TH, 2024. 5.30pm to 8.30pm
Social entrepreneurs have the mammoth task of running a successful business AND changing the world. We’ve learned from research and practice that to address Grand Challenges, we have to not only survive turbulence, but shape a better process. In this workshop for social entrepreneurs, we will explore the following questions:
What does the reality of delivering a pro-social business model look like?
How do we know if the daily hurdles and achievements are leading us towards system change?
Are we working towards a shared vision or should we have a shared vision at all?
This event is an opportunity to chat with and listen to interesting voices from the field, to workshop with your peers and contribute your curious thoughts and ideas to the ever evolving eco-system of social impact.
Our hope is that this event gives you renewed focus and inspiration in your work, providing a strong and vivid image of how your work fits into a bigger ‘impact’ picture.
Plus, an introduction to the Three Lenses Impact Framework as featured in Sheila and Concepción’s new book, ‘Promise, Pitfalls, and Potential of Social Entrepreneurship’. Click below to order:
