How is Aperio different from other consulting firms?
In our view, entrepreneurship is an attitude that can be built into most organizations. And we have a set of tools that can help organizations build innovation and an entrepreneurial attitude. We aren’t interested in projects that develop an earned income business in a vacuum off to the side. Most consultants are drawing from the same tool set and we apply these tools in a unique way, as do our competitors. The fit with emphasis on tools, your culture and ability to work with the style of the individual consultant are significant factors when choosing a consultant. Social Enterprise is a tool to be used within a broader organization strategy context and we want to be engaged in that broader context. We’re using social enterprise to encourage change in the sector and help organizations mature. Aperio recently announced the publication of second edition of their guide, Social Sector Entrepreneurship and Innovation.
