After reading the article assigned for this week. Traditional corporate social responsibility programs rarely produce transformational change and seem to have done little to alleviate extreme poverty in the world. The authors argument is that companies’ projects are not ambitious enough. Thus, instead of trying to fix local problems, corporations and other actors need to reimagine the regional ecosystems in which they participate. In the authors view, ecosystem reinvention requires searching for systemic, multi-sector opportunities and mobilizing complementary partners.

Please comment and discuss how companies can actual reinvent their ecosystems to become more social responsible and have real impact in the world.
