I believe that the program in Global Social Entrepreneurship (GSE) truly embodies the school mission of educating leaders in business and society. When I decided to come to SOM, I knew I wanted to try things that were beyond my comfort zone, and as someone with no previous experience with social enterprises, the GSE program has given me a hands-on and highly rewarding opportunity to provide pro bono consulting to a social organization in the developing world.
Preparing for the adventure
For the first time, GSE is teaming up with one of Yale SOM’s partner schools from the Global Network for Advanced Management, the Asian Institute of Management (AIM). 25 Yale students and 5 AIM MBA’s were selected to work with five social enterprises in the Philippines.
I was very fortunate to consult for Bambike, a socio-ecological enterprise that hand-makes bamboo bicycles with fair trade labor and sustainable building practices. In preparation for our country visit, our SOM team (Purwa, Emily, Disha, Erik and me) had weekly calls with Bryan “Bambryan” McClelland Benitez, founder of Bambike, to understand its social impact, production and distribution challenges, and market opportunities.
