Rezensionen

'Business, and especially tourism, can be a force for good and drive positive change. Social Entrepreneurship in Hospitality: Principles and Strategies for Societal Changes celebrates the power of entrepreneurs and the critical role they play to drive innovation within the industry. The case studies provide real-world examples to inspire students, academics and professionals to think outside the box and help the industry to change and evolve as a result of the COVID-19 crisis.'

'This book takes a brilliant look into the importance of social entrepreneurship. A company should have purpose beyond enriching shareholders. It is excellent that students have an opportunity to learn about the benefits of progressive businesses' social and environmental impact.'

Sonu Shivdasani, CEO and Joint Creative Director, Soneva, Bangkok, Thailand

'While glittery hospitality establishments are teeming to epitomize the practices of corporate social responsibility, such as an embryonic concept of social entrepreneurship, the work by one of the most talented, prominent leaders in hospitality sustainability Professor Legrand, and his colleagues serves as a practical guidepost for hospitality managers hankering for best practices and a timely overture to scholarly discourses in social entrepreneurship.'
