Sosyal Girişimcilikte İnovasyon ve Farklılıkları Yönetmek: Çöp m adam Örneği

Sosyal girişimci, sosyal problemlerin çözümünde farklı kaynakları bir araya getirerek fırsatları yenilikçi bir biçimde değerlendiren ve bu sayede sosyal değişim yaratan bireylerdir. Son dönemde akademik tartışmaların ilgi odağı haline gelmeye başlayan sosyal girişimciliğin farklılıkların yönetimi, eşitlik ve kapsayıcılık, sosyal içerme, ağ çeşitliliği perspektiflerinden yazında nadiren inceleme konusu yapıldığı görülmüştür. Çalışmamızda bu boşluğu doldurmak üzere Türkiye’de başarılı uygulamalarıyla öne çıkan sosyal girişimci bir örgüt olan Çöp m adam, nitel araştırma tasarımı kapsamında örnek olay yöntemi izlenerek derinlemesine incelenmiş ve buradan elde edilen veriler ışığında sosyal girişimcilerin iç ve dış çevresinde karşılaştığı çeşitli zorluk, tehdit ve birbiriyle rekabet eden, çelişen talep ve istekler karşısında bu çeşitliliği nasıl yöneterek yenilik yapma yönünde bir fırsata dönüştürebildiği tartışılmıştır.

Innovation in Social Entrepreneurship and Managing Differences: The Case of “Garbage Ladies”

Social entrepreneurs are those who bring forward various resources and exploit the opportunities innovatively in solving social problems and thus, create social change. In recent years, social entrepreneurship that has become a focus of interest in scholarly debates has rarely been discussed from the perspective of diversity management, equality, social exclusion and network diversity. In order to fill this void, Çöp m adam as one of the most successful examples of social enterprises in Turkey was examined in-depth qualitatively as a case study method and in the light of findings it was discussed how social entrepreneurs can manage such diverse difficulties, challenges, competing and contradicting interests arising from their internal and external environment to transform them into an opportunity.
