Chapter Chapter 4 in Assessing Social Impact of Social Enterprises, 2015, pp 61-90 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter presents an in-depth analysis of the wide landscape of existing models that social entrepreneurs can rely upon when approaching the SIA process. Two famous models are described, illustrating the principles on which they were developed and the indicators they use to guide the assessment process. The practice of monetization, which has been growing in popularity, is discussed, and its benefits and drawbacks described. A taxonomy is proposed to offer an attempt at classification that can help social entrepreneurs to address the great number of models available, followed by a description of the main features of four groups of SIA models. Finally, self-assessment is proposed to guide social entrepreneurs in selecting the group of models that best meets the specific needs of their organizations.
