The purpose of Dr. Weaver’s Formula for Sustainable Social Entrepreneurship is to not only to guide you towards success in social entrepreneurship, but to create a system that enables you to sustain your success. Introduced in “Social Entrepreneurship: A Practical Introduction, Edition 2,” this formula breaks down 5 core elements of a sustainable social entrepreneurship model.

Most organizations that start (whether social enterprises, businesses, or nonprofit organizations), fail. Therefore, the goal is not to simply start a social enterprise, but to create systems in your social enterprise that enables it to thrive over time.

This formula and workbook provide the space needed for you to create, document, examine, and reflect on your own formula for sustainable social entrepreneurship.

Participants in Dr. Weaver’s “Ready, Set, Launch: Social Enterprise Bootcamp” will find this formula to be a good “next step” in their journey!
