DEFINING SOCIAL INNOVATION
Social innovation is an initiative, product, process or program that profoundly changes a social systemby changing one or more of:
Ø the basic routines (how we act; what we do)Ø the resources flows (money, knowledge, people)Ø the authority flows (laws, policies, rules)Ø the beliefs (what we believe is true, right/wrong)

Agents for change in complex systems
• Social entrepreneurs’ goals are to create and introduce new ideas, processes, and products into an existing system allowing it to adapt and learn.
• The goal of system entrepreneurs, however, is to create change at the broadest system level. Their goal is not to help the system adapt, but to help the system transform.
• System change is more likely when BOTH these kinds of entrepreneurship exist within systems.
