    Hi all–

     

    I thought members of this list might be interested in our latest Closer Look at Business Education, this time focused on Social Entrepreneurship / Social Enterprise-let's just say "SE."  The report features excerpts from our interview with Duke's Greg Dees, often viewed as the father of the academic discipline. 

     

    Download the report: http://www.BeyondGreyPinstripes.org/pdf/sereportlist.pdf

     

    The rate at which SE content is increasingly included in MBA curricula has been staggering, given the normal pace of change in academia.  We identify some of the most interesting courses, case studies, and campus academic centers.  Some tough questions remain, however, including the intellectual cohesion of the SE concept, its relevance to MBA education, and its ability to tackle the world's toughest issues.

     

    You can also review our previous Closer Looks at Corporate Governance, Finance, Women and MBAs, Career Services, and China.
