Social Enterprise Strategies
Nonprofit/nongovernmental social enterprises apply business strategies to achieve measurable social impact and strengthen their financial stability through earned income. In this course, students will apply specific strategy and tools in design thinking and lean startup to social sector challenges as they identify target customers, market conditions, potential partners, capital type, and the goals of specific social enterprises. Students will examine social enterprise development and growth and identify approaches to managing and measuring financial and social performance to inform strategy and improve outcomes.
