There is a growing focus within academia upon what it truly means to be a hybrid organisation, and what this may look like at an organisational level. It is recognised that the combination of two, often very conflicting value systems, can create many challenges for individuals and organisations. Some even consider the combination of two different institutional logics (or value systems that guide action) is in itself innovative. We cover these issues in greater depth in Lecture 3.\n<\/p>\n<p>To further develop your understanding of social entrepreneurship and social enterprise, Lecture 4 examines some of the historical, socio-political, cultural and technological factors which have supported the rise and importance of social enterprise as a vehicle for change in our communities.\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"panel iDevice\">\n\t<div class=\"panel-heading idevice-heading\">\n\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"pedagogicalicon\" alt=\"aims\" src=\"https:\/\/course.oeru.org\/seda301\/wp-content\/themes\/oeru_course\/idevices\/Icon_objectives.png\">\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t<h2>Pathway Learning Objectives<\/h2>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"panel-body\">\n\t\t<div class=\"col-md-12\">\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>After reviewing the content and learning activities for this Learning Pathway, you should:\n<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Understand the hybrid nature of social entrepreneurship and social enterprise\n<\/li>\n<li>Understand some challenges associated with managing hybrid objectives\n<\/li>\n<li>Identify the key environmental trends and drivers which have supported the rise of social entrepreneurship\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"Hybrid_missions_and_sustainable_social_impact\">Hybrid missions and sustainable social impact<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Social enterprises have been referred to as the ideal type of hybrid organisation.

What they determined is that the factors influencing social entrepreneurship activity are highly contextual, which means that social enterprises in different regions develop unique relationships with their socio-political, economic and cultural environments. The activities of the market, government and the community sectors all have a role to play in the need for, and emergence of social entrepreneurship.In Lecture 4, we delve into a number of the influences that these sectors have upon socially entrepreneurial activity, along with other environmental factors such as changes in cultural values and technological advancements.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"panel iDevice\">\n\t<div class=\"panel-heading idevice-heading\">\n\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"pedagogicalicon\" alt=\"web resources\" src=\"https:\/\/course.oeru.org\/seda301\/wp-content\/themes\/oeru_course\/idevices\/Icon_inter.png\">\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t<h2>Resources to review<\/h2>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"panel-body\">\n\t\t<div class=\"col-md-12\">\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lectures\n<ul>\n<li>Lecture 4 &#8211; Slides:  <a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/wikieducator.org\/File:Lecture_4_-_socio_political_environmental_technological_(2).pdf\">Socio-political, economic, cultural and technological factors related to the growth of social entrepreneurship<\/a>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"plainlinks floatleft\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600px\" height=\"400px\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fK8v_AFQWtM?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>\n<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Readings\n<ul>\n<li>Reading 1: <a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external text\" href=\"http:\/\/ondernemerschap.panteia.nl\/pdf-ez\/h201022.pdf\">Hoogendoorn 2016 &#8211; The Prevalence and Determinants of Social Entrepreneurship at the Macro Level<\/a>\n<\/li>\n<li>Reading 2 (optional): Kemp et al., 2016 &#8211;&nbsp;: <a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external text\" href=\"http:\/\/kemp.unu-merit.nl\/docs\/The%20humanization%20of%20the%20economy%20-%20Kemp%20et%20al%20for%20SPRU%20conference%202016.pdf\">The Humanization of the Economy Through Social Innovation<\/a>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"Learning_Pathway_Activities\">Learning Pathway Activities<\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"panel iDevice\">\n\t<div class=\"panel-heading idevice-heading\">\n\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"pedagogicalicon\" alt=\"media required\" src=\"https:\/\/course.oeru.org\/seda301\/wp-content\/themes\/oeru_course\/idevices\/Icon_multimedia.png\">\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t<h2>WEBINAR REMINDER<\/h2>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"panel-body\">\n\t\t<div class=\"col-md-12\">\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>We will be running an online webinar in in conjunction with our UTAS students in Week 3, in which you will have the opportunity to examine an existing social enterprise.\n<\/p>\n<p>Webinars will be running at the following times during UTAS&#8217;s Semester 1 Week 3 (13th of March 2018, 19:00 to 20:30 and 15th March, 19:00 to 20:30).
