Do you have a little voice inside you that is nudging you to finally launch that thing or take that leap into having more impact? Or maybe you have wanted to take the leap into going out on your own. On today’s episode, Stephanie and Traci will be talking about why NOW is the perfect time to start that social enterprise, launch that nonprofit or social impact business that makes a contribution to the collective.
In our conversation:
We talk about why now is the perfect time to pivot and start that new initiative We look at the intersection of sectors and highlight how our most challenging problems need multi-sectoral solutions including the public, private, and nonprofit sectors. We discuss how the business sector is becoming increasingly more transparent about their sustainability and impact-driven practices We discuss how consumer demand has driven the need for businesses to be engaged in solving community challenges We see how business sector changes have led the way for more business to adopt authentic and integrated cause-related marketing practices We talk about how funders are now more interested in supporting deeper outcomes that delivering more impact than in the past We highlight other factors indicating an increase in the social businesses including, generational shifts in how they view business as needing to play a bigger role in addressing social problems, the rise of benefit corporations, the increase in impact investing and the growth of ecosystems to support the social enterprise community. We discuss how COVID-19 has further validated the need for more social change leaders to start that social enterprise, launch that nonprofit or social impact business that makes a contribution to the collective.Mentioned in today’s conversation:
