COURSE INTRODUCTION
This course aims to encourage and guide students to formulate innovative solutions to social problems and help them develop business ideas with a positive social impact. In this course, students will receive training in managing and leading social ventures in different contexts and from different perspectives. The course adopts an experiential approach in teaching social enterprise management and social impact strategies through case studies, guest talks, and providing management consulting services to real social enterprises.
The course culminates with a group project where postgraduate students lead groups of undergraduate students in developing a Team Business Plan that seeks to address the key issues faced by their Social Venture Partner and maximize the social impact of the social enterprise.
