Taking the diploma in Business and Social Enterprise (BZSE), I have definitely learn a lot about a social enterprise. About the social enterprise model in Singapore, and the many other successful social enterprise models around the world. Perhaps what many social entrepreneur can agree on is that the UK has one of the best model for a social enterprise.
A social enterprise will not disappear nor cease to exist. They will continuously grow and become well known by everyone. But what is the future of the social enterprise? There are a few ways to help cultivate a social enterprise, to ensure that they can continue to thrive.
Things such as changing the system, to not just merely speaking of what they want to do, but to just implement and do what they want to will build a social enterprise or even a legacy. Of course, with ideas, the same old ideas will not work over and over again. There has to be fresh insights or new ideas to help tackle the many issues that a country or even the world is facing.
But should we want to develop new ideas, method to change the world, shouldn't it be better if we went down to the place straight to find out what is going on, rather than just looking at it through the internet? Indeed, we are too comfortable at where we are to get down and dirty. However, such things can slowly kill a social enterprise.
These are just a few of the many ways we can consider when setting up a social enterprise. However, I believe that we have it in us, to make a change. It does not has to be as drastic as to having a brilliant idea that has never been thought before but if it is done before, and it works, we should consider trying it out. It has to be with a heart and with the faith and belief that it will work. Adopting a safe method while continuously trying to improve their own business, that is what I would like to see in social entrepreneur, locally or globally.
