Learning journey in a nutshell

Making a difference does not happen overnight. This is why our programs run over a period of several months. The challenge can be on your doorstep or abroad. In partnership with WHU, we offer complementary lectures on entrepreneurship and leadership so that you get the best out of two worlds.

Our programs typically involve four modules. In module 1, candidates meet their counterparts from the target community and they get introduced to the concept of social business. They turn into a high-performing team to co-create a profitable business which makes a difference. In module 2, they apply design thinking to prototype solutions on-site. With lean startup, they get their business going with minimal resources. In module 3, they pitch their business plan and impact model to a local and international investor. Up to module 4, they implement their plan on-site and hand over the responsibility to a local entrepreneur. Finally, they assess the impact created as well as what they bring back to the company. 

"BOOKBRIDGE broadened my individual perspective and motivated me to co-develop a capability-based social impact program for Swiss Re Bangalore."
