Barriers to Social Enterprise Growth
通过年轻社会企业的定性案例数据，探讨了个人、组织和制度层面的成长障碍，发现价值观差异、商业模式和制度规范是主要障碍，并提出了三种战略应对方式。
This study investigates barriers to social enterprise growth. The research employs qualitative case study data gathered from young social enterprises to examine the interplay between social enterprise and individual, organizational and institutional barriers to growth. We find that social enterprise barriers to growth are based on values differences, business models, and institutional norms. We theorize three strategic responses to overcome barriers to growth: values-based decision-making, leveraging social mission, and anchoring.
