Harmony in Impact

In "Harmony in Impact: Navigating Tensions in Social Entrepreneurship," Usha Chaudhary utilizes the grounded theory research method - an inductive approach to reviewing, coding, synthesizing, and analyzing data - to develop novel theories based on emergent patterns. The rich data was derived from interviews with 22 social entrepreneurs to seek insights from their experiences and struggles throughout their entrepreneurial journey as well as the author's own personal and professional experiences. This book will help current and future social entrepreneurs better understand the many challenges and trade-offs involved in launching and operating a social enterprise and provide solutions about how to manage and balance these trade-offs. In doing so, existing and aspiring social entrepreneurs may be able to avoid certain pitfalls, thereby improving their likelihood of success so that they can help shape a better future for our society and world.
