The post-Schumpeterian perspective emphasizes the divergence from conventional economic models. It focuses on the role of social enterprises in driving societal change through innovative approaches that extend beyond mere market competitiveness. This chapter paper also sheds light on the incentives and resistance encountered in the context of social enterprise innovation.

However, they often encounter resistance that limits their ability to grow. This tension between incentive and resistance highlights challenges and opportunities for innovation in social enterprises.
