Social Value Investing

A Management Framework for Effective Partnerships

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Social Value Investing offers practical insights for any private sector CEO, public sector administrator, or nonprofit or foundation manager hoping to build successful collaborations. It lays out a five-point framework inspired by value investing - one of history's most successful investment paradigms - which can be applied to a wide range of programs and activities. The book tells the compelling stories of cross-sector partnerships from around the world, including ones that transformed Central Park and urban spaces in New York City, provided community-led economic development in Afghanistan, and improved public service delivery in cities across Brazil. Drawing on lessons and observations developed from a broad selection of partnership examples, Buffett and Eimicke create a blueprint for designing and managing effective, sustainable collaborations. Social Value Investing also provides readers access to original, academic case studies as well as professionally produced video documentaries for every major partnership profiled - bringing to life the people and stories in a way that few other business or management books have done.

Rezensionen

Eimicke and Buffett posit a new architecture for business models used to tackle our most intractable social problems based on the concept of 'shared success.' The solutions they cite lead to not only efficacy but also high performance, motivating a new way of thinking about social change. This book updates our thinking on this new form of problem solving and provides useful pragmatic and actionable examples to serve as business models for the next generation of social change maker.
