Greetings!
Welcome to the Summer Issue of SEE Change Magazine! In this issue, we explore the varied challenges of social change organizations - and herald their successes too. Stories on relative upstarts like SunDrum, Runa and Sappho offer insightful takeaways for those starting something new, while Shannon Simmons provides tangible and practical advice from the business end of things. Peter Ter Weeme discusses India's successful leadership on CSR legislation, an example for other countries to follow. And, on the other side of the continuum, old-timer The Esalen Institute reminds us of the need to pause, to praise and to take stock to achieve longer-term sustainability. Finally, this special issue includes our Failure Report, a student project commissioned by SEE Change exploring that niggly thing called failure in social enterprise. The report delves into a topic we don't seem to enjoy talking about in this sector, yet discourse and exploration of failure, may, in fact, help us the most in our pursuit of success. So feel free to download, share and learn. Wishing you a wonderful summer of inspiration, relaxation, dedication and, yes, success. The SEE Change Team It's all online at SEE Change Magazine.
