A Journey Of Learning From Social Entrepreneurs
What can we learn from entrepreneurs who are setting out to change the world?
We asked ourselves this question on a two-week trip to southern India during December 2011 and January 2012.
The purpose of the trip was to meet social entrepreneurs from the sub-continent to see what they are doing and to learn from what they have achieved!
In this account of our journey I reflect on what I learnt about the different ways social entrepreneurs from southern India express their love and their power; and how we – me and you – can apply this to our own work as social entrepreneurs.
