Description
Book SynopsisSocial entrepreneurs greatly differ from other forms of entrepreneurs in terms of judgment capacity, pro-activeness, innovativeness, entrepreneurial virtue. They are often associated with social innovation and ascribed as transformational leaders due to their contribution in finding and initiating the positive change in solving any social problem.
In recent years, the whole world is facing different aspects and levels of social problems. This has led to social entrepreneurs becoming more desired and attracting significant research attention.
