Abstract
“A new entrepreneurial leadership for the networked society”
Debating the crisis of capitalism we also need to challenge connected leadership styles and the division of labor. Social innovation is driven by leaders and entrepreneurs who build on network resources and much more complex resource allocation processes in organizations.
Their leadership is based on a different attitude towards purpose. A strategy relying on impact and utility is the consequence which is not solely profit-driven. The key note will provide an example of how this leadership style is practiced in the Social Entrepreneurship Akademie and derive first hints how this change may have an effect on your organization.
