Some of the most important qualities to do social change work?




Some of the most important qualities on should inherit in a quest to effectively conduct duties as a social entrepreneur include:


1. Being disciplined enough to set own mile stone and make sure you meet the mile stones in an unstructured, entrepreneurial environment.

2. Have a conviction that your vision, if properly implemented has the ability to bring about the desired change

3. Be willing to learn as much as you can about the problem and your constituency.

4. Be able to seek to understand and evaluate the feedback you get along the way.

5. You should have the courage to tackle the bold problem that you are passionate about despite all the negativity or challenges.

6. Have perseverance to keep going even during those times when everything seems to be going wrong and everyone is telling you "you are crazy,just give up."

7. Understand the problem you're trying to solve, and maybe apply some personal experience to the problem and try solving it!
