Finally, a SELF-GUIDING BOOK to take students, adult learners, businesspeople, makers and searchers on the path to finding and activating their INNER SOCIAL ENTREPRENEUR.

We invite you to join us and GET TO WOW! GET TO WOW continues the journey toward social entrepreneurship for the general public, pivoting off the successes that GCSEN Foundation has developed over the past five years. GCSEN has been featured in numerous publications and media platforms, including MarketWatch, Yahoo Finance, in numerous economic blogs, and as an "On-trendpreneur" in Trends Journal. The New England Journal of Higher Education stated, "GSCEN's research has conclusively shown that SE education results in significant content knowledge gains retained by students; shows significant gains in self-confidence; is ranked highly as a life-changing learning experience by students; and is highly recommended by students to their peers."
