Social Enterprise Academy - Expert Impact

Gemma Hodge,

Social Enterprise Academy

Met with David Taylor

We are a social enterprise that supports people and organisations working for social change through transformational learning and development programmes.

Creating sustainable social businesses that deliver high value social and environmental impact is hard. Social entrepreneurs and ethical leaders at all levels need support to develop their own practice of leadership and entrepreneurship, and to develop the talent in their organisations.

Alongside business support infrastructure, finance and networks, the Academy offers a powerful style of learning and development. Learners build the knowledge and skills, clarity and confidence to respond to their current challenges and seize opportunities.

It was really helpful to get reassurance from someone with David’s experience on our current brand approach. I’ve left the session with quick, practical actions that will help us simplify our core messaging and shift towards a more agile, ‘start-up’ approach to branding and marketing.
