Description

How can the social ecosystem transform in the new normal? If a charity is in dire need of cash, should it accept a donation that might be tainted? What happens when we place a value on all things in our marketized society? Can the corporate beast be harnessed without reconstituting corporations? Should charities be allowed to run businesses? Willie Cheng provides his perspectives to these questions and more in his new book, a collection of essays on issues including the social ecosystem in Singapore, market values in society, the role and future of nonprofit organizations, corporate responsibility, “new capitalism”, volunteerism and values. His analyses and logic are supported by research, case studies and examples gleaned from his many years of experience in both the social and business sectors. Written in an easy, friendly and readable style, this book provides valuable insights for volunteers, executives and leaders in nonprofits and corporates who want to know how they can succeed in doing good better in the new world order. With a foreword by Professor Tommy Koh, Professor of Law, National University of Singapore, and Ambassador-at-Large, Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
