Structure Lab &#8211; the place to learn what structure to ask your legal advisor for. It can also be useful for foundations, investors, and others working with social benefit start-ups.
I feel wowed. I have been reading about structures for social benefit start-ups and considering my own for years now. I felt like I had a [...]]]></description>

In January I posted A Gift That Gives. This is a follow-up post.
My daughter has now hear me tell the story a dozen times. Now she tells it proudly herself. We dedicated some time to discussing how she wanted to donate her $100. This was a lovely opportunity for me to share that this is [...]]]></description>

I read the latest issue of Beyond Profit magazine on my flight to the west coast. I was headed to Beyond Social Media conference. What I most enjoyed reading was about going beyond existing structures. For years now, as part of several startups with varying degrees of social good intent, I have pondered over appropriate [...]]]></description>

I was conversing with a good friend last night, and the subject turned to looks. I said something then that I want to share with you now.
People in general are so self-conscious about their appearance. There are millions, if not billions, of dollars spent on appearance. And yet, over and over people get together and [...]]]></description>

To keep myself and a friend blogging I thought we would try a blog support group.
Here is how I think it can work.

Gather several others interested. I think the ideal number is less than 7.
Set a personal goal (x per week feels right). Share it on twitter with the group (via [...]]]></description>

I think of myself as nurturing networks and communities as well as individuals and organizations. And one strategy I use is network weaving. Network Weaving describes the connection made between two people I know who don&#8217;t yet know each other as closing a triangle, because in a network map, this is exactly what it looks [...]]]></description>
