Essay on Social Entrepreneurship from the Perspective of Network Organizations
Abstract
With the growth of social entrepreneurship and the greater promotion of social innovations as a result of their activities, what would be the connection of this result with the perspectives of the networked organizations? In a way, the answer to this question is better explained when one understands what these perspectives are of networked organizations, which are often considered organizations without frontiers. Thus, one of the objectives of this essay is to discuss the individual and collective aspect of social entrepreneurship, but with the intention of showing a new approach of reconciling perspectives and creating new visions. Thus this essay has brought the discussion about what really makes social entrepreneurship real as a practice of creating social value to people that is understanding of action as a network.References
