Dieser Band liefert wertvolle Hinweise, wie soziale Organisationen Innovationsprozesse erfolgreich gestalten konnen.


Social enterprises find themselves facing a paradox within their innovation processes: their own range of rationalities and professions can, on the one hand, be a resource for innovation. At the same time, however, it can also create tensions and conflicts within the organisation, which can block or thwart these innovation processes. Social enterprises must learn to unfold this paradox in their innovation efforts. With that in mind, this volume proposes the analytical levels of response, discourse and integration on which social enterprises organise their innovation processes: response creates necessary difference, discourse generates organisational legitimation, and integration produces practical innovation.
