5.0 out of 5 stars At last - social innovation described and experienced!, 20 Jan 2008
By R. Rhodes "Move Me" (Forest of Dean, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If policy makers and bureaucrats - especially those around the Brown government that 'claims' to espouse social enterprise (and the Lottery, FutureBuilders, and that spectrum of quangos and foundations so in love with 'Henry Ford' management assumptions, targets, and risk aversion) - were to read one book from cover to cover, it should be this one. It grasps the essential truth that this form of creativity is a reflective, opportunistic,and value centred response to external and internal drivers. It demonstrates that social innovation is a journey that can rarely if ever be predicted in a business plan or tender document and arrives at the conclusion that the best way to promote social development and enterprise is to back people rather than plans - the plans that real change merchants will be unlikely to waste valuable time upon. It challenges current bureaucratic practice, suggests better ways of getting behind those who are driven to make the world a better place, and proves its case convincingly.
