Summary

This book presents a model for change based on five strategic ways  that social entrepreneurs change social systems  -  these  are proven principles that any individual leader or organization  can apply to bringing about deep, lasting and systematic change.  Illustrated and brought to life by compelling real life examples of  social change leaders across all fields, the framework in this book  will offer a roadmap that allows anyone to become a "changemaker."  After introducing the five principles model, each chapter will use  compelling real life examples to illustrate how each is used by  social entrepreneurs in driving significant change that not only  offers solutions but changes whole systems. The book presents some  of today's most innovative and effective approaches to solving  social and environmental challenges; envisioning social  entrepreneurs as role models, catalysts, enablers and recruiters  who spread waves system changing solutions throughout society like  a rock in a pond.!   Through each example, this book will help readers realize what  makes the orientation of a social entrepreneur different from  others who are doing great things around the world but have failed  to achieve significant impact. The book focuses not just on the  stories of heroes but on the rolling and rumbling change they  create, from the ground up and from the top down - on personal,  professional, and systemic levels. It is about change that happens  quietly, loudly and often simultaneously. Change that begins with  the end in mind and that demonstrates how and when empathy,  creativity, passion and persistence are combined; significant, life  altering progress is indeed possible.
