  1. Heute vor einer Woche war ich beim Netzwerktreffen gemeinwohlorientierte Unternehmen (Mannheim x Karlsruhe) im SteamWorks – organisiert vom Impact Hub Karlsruhe. Eine gelungene Veranstaltung mit vielen inspirierenden Gründer:innen und Interessierten.

    Nach meinem Pitch zum neuen Beratungsangebot meiner Impuls Transformationsagentur habe ich im Pro-Action Café über Sprints und Experimente gesprochen, mit denen ich in Unternehmen die Team- und Organisationsentwicklung unterstütze.

    Und noch eine Ankündigung: im Herbst werde ich in Kooperation mit dem Impact Hub einen Sprint im Rahmen des Projekts „Nachhaltig Wirken“ mitgestalten. Titel: Vom Wissen ins Handeln. Hier lasse ich u.a. auch Erkenntnisse aus meiner Doktorarbeit mit einfließen.

  5. Beyond the Labels: How KasiKonnect is Powering a New Township Economy

    In the township, business doesn’t wait for perfect conditions. It wakes up early, sets up on the street corner, opens the spaza shop, fixes cars in the yard, and sells solutions where they are needed most. This is the real economy—alive, creative, and relentless. Yet for years, many systems have tried to define this energy using two limiting boxes: formal and informal. If you’re a big registered company, you’re seen as structured and bankable. If you’re a street-level entrepreneur, […]

  6. Wie erzähle ich eine Equity Story, die Investor:innen wirklich überzeugt? 💰
    // Marie Wysk – Senior Transaction Manager, FASE Finanzierungsagentur für Social Entrepreneurship

    Marie Wysk weiß, wie sich Fundraising anfühlt – von beiden Seiten. Als Gründerin hat sie selbst erlebt, wie schwer es ist, Kapital für Ideen mit gesellschaftlichem Mehrwert zu gewinnen. Heute begleitet sie bei FASE Gründer:innen in Finanzierungsrunden und bringt zusammen, was zusammengehört: Kapital und Wirkung.
    Fünf Jahre Strategieberatung und Corporate-VC-Erfahrung, fünf Jahre Impact-Startup-Ökosystem – sie kennt die Sprache der Investor:innen genauso gut wie die Realität der Gründer:innen. 🎙️

  9. Learning from Social Entrepreneurs: Fodeography

    This interview series was developed and conducted by students from Salzburg College.

    Dr. Eduardo Canela

    Meet Dr. Ed Canela: a global freelancing consultant, digital transformation guru, and AI innovator who’s changing the world one project at a time. As a polio survivor since age 3, he proves that resilience and brilliance can conquer any challenge. With expertise in Organization Development (OD), data sciences, AI, and project management, he’s worked across 79 countries, partnering with major global players like The World Bank, UNDP, and USAID to solve real-world problems and create sustainable solutions.

    Dr. Canela’s academic journey is just as impressive. He holds degrees in Electrical Engineering, an MBA in Operations Management, and a PhD in Systems Dynamics. He’s taught at institutions such as the Asian Institute of Management and UP Institute for Small Scale Industries. Beyond teaching, he shares cutting-edge ideas through his bi-monthly Substack newsletter “OD Play Notes”.

    What sets him apart? He’s not just about theory; he’s about action — helping organizations innovate and thrive in an ever-changing world. Whether it’s advising governments or training future leaders, Dr. Canela’s impact is felt globally. For college students aspiring to make a difference, his story is a reminder that passion, perseverance, and knowledge can truly shape the future.

    INTERVIEW OF DR. ED CANELA: CRAFTING AND SCALING DIGITAL IMPACTS

    1. Which project do you consider your most successful?

    As a freelance OD (Organization Development) and AI consultant, I would highlight two initiatives supporting social enterprises in Nigeria and the Philippines. I consider them moderately successful, as both still have potential for wider adoption: (a) Digital and AI literacy program for rural and peri-urban women in Nigeria (donor-supported); and (b) AI Social Impact Crafter for social enterprises in the Philippines.

    2. Which current project has the most potential?

    2.1 Digital and AI Literacy Programs
    These one-week programs targeted women in peri-urban communities around Lagos and Abuja. Each course began with a baseline assessment, followed by short, practical sessions that included case examples, app and device demonstrations, hands-on exercises, and quizzes.

    Key topics covered:

    • Digital and EU AI literacy standards
    • Analog-to-digital transition
    • Basic data analytics
    • Safe and responsible mobile phone use
    • Ethics, AI responsibility, and cybersecurity

    Most participants were engaged in retail and micro-selling and showed strong interest in using digital tools to improve their businesses and reduce exposure to cyber scams. Anchoring learning on their actual business activities proved to be a strong motivator for capability development.

    Even after donor funding ended, the program remained impactful by clearly surfacing capability gaps—particularly in OD, data literacy, and sustainable AI use. These insights continue to inform how I design practical, context-aware, and sustainable interventions.

    2.2 AI Social Impact Crafter
    The AI-driven Social Impact Crafter was developed to address common challenges faced by social enterprises in designing funding proposals and justifying impact.

    Built using Google Studio, the tool performs five core functions:

    • Extracts baseline data from the social enterprise
    • Recommends ten relevant social impact indicators
    • Facilitates stakeholder discussion to select three to four priority indicators
    • Aligns indicators with current UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
    • Suggests measurement methods and reporting frequency

    This tool is “live” and accessible online. Interested users may e-mail the author for further information.

    3. How do you measure success?

    I measure success by adoption, application, and capability growth, not outputs alone. Indicators include: (a) continued use of tools and frameworks; (b) improved reporting (even anecdotal); (c) stronger funding proposals and safer digital practices; (d) ongoing use of tools after formal engagements end; and (e) sustained use signals real impact.

    4. Do you consider your projects sustainable?

    Yes. Sustainability is a core design principle. My work emphasizes:

    • Internal capability building rather than consultant dependence
    • Low-cost, mobile-friendly solutions
    • Integration into existing workflows
    • Even after funding or formal programs conclude, the knowledge and tools remain usable

    5. How are your projects impacted by local and national governments?

    Government priorities shape my work, particularly in:

    • Digital transformation and education
    • Cybersecurity and online fraud prevention
    • Social enterprise and MSME development
    • Alignment with national policies and UN SDGs ensures relevance for public institutions and donors, even when projects are independently implemented.

    Closing Statement

    My work sits at the intersection of OD, AI, and social impact — focused on practical capability building that continues to deliver value long after formal projects end.

  20. In celebration of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, let me emphasize the critical role of inclusivity and accessibility in business. Highlighting the mission of 'Bridge the Gap,' a social entrepreneurship venture co-founded with Björn, the post discusses how they guide companies in making their products, services, and business processes more inclusive for people with disabilities. It underscores the importance of viewing inclusivity not as a compliance checkbox but as a journey towards embracing diversity. The post calls for action from businesses to integrate accessibility into their core strategies, marking this day as not just one of awareness but of proactive commitment to inclusivity.
