Week 2 Study Questions

For all students, please review the Week 2 study questions to help you address key points in this week's readings. As mentioned in class, there is no assignment to formally prepare these questions unless you are unable to attend class. Otherwise, simply consider these questions for class discussion.

1) Who is the child in Omelas and what does the child symbolize?

2) What are Hollender's key priorties for a firm? How do these priorities compare with the priorties of a firm as defined by Friedman?

3) How does Schwab characterize global corporate citizenship? What is required to achieve this distinction?

Week 1 Study Questions

For those students who were unable to attend the first class session on 3/30. Please answer 2 of the 3 questions listed below and send to my email at ryan.schneider.2009@anderson.ucla.edu. The answers should only be 1-2 pages long and address the key issues discussed in the weekly readings for this class session.

1) How do Martin & Osberg characterize social entrepreneurship as compared to social activism and social service providers?

2) What definition of entrepreneurship most resonates with your own defintion? Why?

3) How to Boschee and McClurg differ from Dees in defining social enterprise?

MGMT 298D - Spring 2009

Hi there.  I am excited for the Spring 2009 semester to begin in a few short weeks.  It will be fun to teach Introduction to Social Entrepreneurship to another group of students.  I have prepared some new lectures, integrated some new cases, and tried to make the class as relevant and timely as possible.

This blog was created last year and served as an important platform to build upon discussion from class and to explore new ideas.  I hope that the students will continue to use the blog this year.   I am certain that there is much more that we can do with it - so lets have fun and make it as useful as possible.

Thanks,

Jonathan
