SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND SPIRITUALITY : What is social entrepreneurship really?!

What is social entrepreneurship really?!

David leads us in an exploration of how aspects of spirituality can and do manifest themselves in this new (or old?!) way of doing business.

David will establish a common definition of social entrepreneurship and explore many examples of what could, or could not, be considered a social enterprise. He will then lead the group in dialogue around the question, "How do you believe spirituality manifests (or could manifest) itself in social enterprise?"
