0706 | How Transformation Works with Roger Martin & Sally Osberg

Strategy guru Roger L. Martin and Skoll Foundation President and CEO Sally R. Osberg are co-authors of Getting Beyond Better: How Social Entrepreneurship Works. In this interview, they describe how social entrepreneurs target systems that exist in a stable but unjust equilibrium and transform them into entirely new, superior, and sustainable equilibria.
