Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this research project was to elucidate social enterprises that simultaneously pursue social and economic values which are in tension.In this research project, we attempted to analyze and examine (1) the tension between social value and economic value, (2) the degree of recognition of social purpose and economic purpose in an organization, (3) how management can surmount such tension, and (4) social outcome and economic outcome, in social enterprises. Especially focus on the employment transition support business in Japan.
As a result, we found that the economic logic and social logic are different for each business entity, and that the management style and results for achieving both are different, and that it is necessary to trace back to the composition of the entrepreneurial team and recognition of business opportunities when analyzing and examining social enterprises.
