Schwartz is vice president at Ashoka, the global organization that works to ensure that social entrepreneurs and their innovations inspire a generation of changemakers to help sustain and support large scale social change. In this groundbreaking book, she presents a time-tested model that any individual leader or organization can apply to bring about deep, lasting, and systematic change, based on five principles: <ul> <b><li>Restructure Industry Norms</b></li> <b><li>Change Market Dynamics</b></li> <b><li>Use Market Forces to Create Social Value</b></li> <b><li>Advance Full Citizenship</b></li> <b><li>Cultivate Empathy</b></li> </ul> <p>These actionable principles are brought to life by the book's compelling stories of everyday people who have made real changes around the globe. Throughout the book, Schwartz provides a blueprint to demonstrate how anyone, anywhere, can become an effective changemaker. <p>As Schwartz explains, the next-generation changemakers are in many ways the champions of this movement: the corporations that embrace new and more sustainable ways of doing business; the donors who want their money to effectively and ethically impact people's lives; and the citizens who are trying to make a better life for themselves, their families, their neighbors, and their communities. <p><i>Rippling</i> presents some of today's most innovative and effective approaches to solving social and environmental challenges, and clearly demonstrates that when empathy, creativity, passion, and persistence are combined, significant, life-altering progress is indeed possible.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Beverly Schwartz</b> is vice president of global marketing at Ashoka, the world's largest association of leading social entrepreneurs.
