THE ART OF SOCIAL ENTERPRISE Business as if People Mattered

According to two social enterprise lawyers, it's possible to create businesses that achieve great things while meeting the needs of owners, employees, and humanity at large. A quietly philosophical audiobook that is also amply detailed invites listeners to re-examine profit-centered organizational paradigms and encourages leaders to think more charitably about how people are affected by an organization's activities. David Skulski's kind and resonant narration is a wonderful way to experience the authors' ideas and invitations. His performance connects with the book's generous spirit without calling attention to his subtle dramatic skill and vocal clarity. With its focus on nonprofits and socially responsible business models, this is a timely guide for anyone seeking alternatives to money-making enterprises that are socially irresponsible and inhumane.
