Social Enterprise Survey

You can try out the FairShares Social Enterprise Survey by visiting the website of the FairShares Association.

Introduction

The FairShares Association’s Social Enterprise Survey was developed from Table 4 of the following academic paper:

• Ridley-Duff, R. J. and Southcombe, C. (2012) “The Social Enterprise Mark: a critical review of its conceptual dimensions”, Social Enterprise Journal, 8(3): 176-200, [1]

The Social Enterprise Survey presents 18 statements derived from a composite list of social enterprise characteristics in five different theories of social enterprise. You can explore your attitude (and find out about others’ attitudes) to each characteristic. This is often a precursor to using the Advanced Management Diagnostics to find out how deeply your stakeholders think these characteristics are embedded in your social enterprise.

Interpreting Results

Documentation on how to interpret the results of the Social Enterprise Survey will appear here.
