NBA 5100
Social Entrepreneurship

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2016-2017.

The goal of this course to prepare students to lead companies that have embedded social missions and to engage various stakeholders that are at the nexus of business and social value. Internally, leaders will need to be prepared to manage the organization's culture, establish a mission, and find synergies in pursuit of a triple bottom line. Externally, leaders must manage not only supply chain and customer relationships, but also seek to fundamentally change the social, environmental and legal environments in which business operates. A major focus of the course will be on the challenges associated with connecting social initiatives and missions with bottom‑line benefits. These include: How can the goals of a company be articulated in and driven by the corporate mission? How can leaders establish a mission that is big enough to attract employees, customers and partners but specific enough to be achievable? What does success look like for a social entrepreneur? And, which goals are established by the market and which by the mission?
