Issue #6: The Future of Doing Good

Pioneers Post Quarterly Issue 6

Below you’ll find the digital version of issue six of Pioneers Post Quarterly. We’ve got a comprehensive and revealing look at the practice of impact measurement. How hard is it to do, what is the motivation to do it and how does it help the social venture? All the answers are inside. We took a trip to the future as well – we wanted to know how we can get better at making the world better. Lastly we’ve got a charismatic bon viveur with some controversial views about charity. Don't delay – get stuck in!

  • Cover feature: We’ve had quite a few years now of doing good but are we getting any better at it? We consider the future.
  • Global Focus: Exploring social enterprise in Argentina.
  • The Black Cab Interviews: Restaurateur with social meddling tendencies Iqbal Wahhab thinks charity sucks! We ask him to explain himself.
  • Impact measurement: The results of a survey present the most revealing picture yet about practices, uses and the tools that are used.
  • Behind the mask: CEOs are not the superheroes we thought they were. Turns out they have worries too - who knew?
  • PLUS: How tenants can help solve homelessness, we spend a night in a social enterprise hotel and also have a pint with Resonance boss Daniel Brewer.
