We understand business and government well enough – the private and public sectors. But how much do we really know about the social sector, made up of cooperatives and so-called NGOs and Not-for-Profits, etc.? Do we realize how vast this sector is?

This topic helps inform managers of business and government about this important sector with which they must work. It can also be a good early topic for those organizations from the social sector itself.

In this session you will learn:

  • What the social sector is
  • What makes organizations in it different
  • How the social sector can help the other sectors
