The Power Of Social Impact in Business w/ Richard Kennedy
Manage episode 334883098 series 2486147
What impact would you like to make?
Co-founder and director of Cornerstone Place, Richard Kennedy, is on a mission to use the power of business models and capital to create sustainable, positive social change.
Cornerstone Place is a social enterprise that aims to serve charities that provide accommodation and services for people at risk of homelessness. Richard and his co-founder David have a vision of creating 5-10 million bed nights for the homeless.
Social enterprise businesses are trying to change the world for the better. Like other businesses, they aim to make a profit, but what sets them apart is what they do with their profits - often reinvesting and donating profits to create a positive social change.
So often people become fixated on chasing the money and hitting financial targets but Richard’s message is that you can think about ‘what good can I do for the world?’ whilst still making profits.
Tune in to hear Richard’s thoughts on why it's never too soon to prioritise social impact.
