Introduction to Corporate Social Entrepreneurship

In this lesson we present the two easy-to-follow tools for implementing CSE in organisations.

1) Tool 1: CSE canvas (available in the EMBRACE website – link)

Instructions for tool 1:

  1. Start populating the template by answering the questions on the CSE canvas
  2. Add more ideas as needed
  3. TIP: starting with a brainstorm can be very useful
2) Tool 2: the EMBRACE CSE self-assessment for organisations

The ‘EMBRACE CSE self-assessment for organisations’ presents a set of 27 CSE practices/initiatives by which the organisation marks the ones it is involved with or have already been involved. The EMBRACE self-assessment scale is then used in order to identify the CSE stage of the organisation at the moment it takes the self-assessment. The document is not presented here due to the size but can be accessed at the EMBRACE website (link).

Instructions for tool 2:

  1. In the CSEEMBRACE check-list, check each practice/initiative that the organization performs and write them down on the ‘Evidence’ space.
  2. Based on the number of practices/initiatives checked, identify the CSE stage the organization is located
  3. The organisation can review and implement the practices/initiatives that were not checked in order to progress with the CSE stage.

The self-assessment of organisations will enable a CSE Task Force to understand their organisation’s position in relation to CSE stages. The lower the score the closer the company is to social responsibility; on the other hand, the closer the score is to 10, the closer the company is to achieve a full and advanced CSE process.
