Abstract

Social enterprises (SEs) face challenges due to the need to achieve their social and economic objectives. Hybridity, as a result of their emphasis on social and economic logic, is a typical characteristic of SEs. In this paper, I discuss the two forms of hybridity, namely hybridity in governance and hybridity in organizational logics leading to the identificationof organizational forms resulting from their interaction. Subsequently, I focus my attention on the degree of hybridity in social enterprises on the basis of hybrid relativity and hybrid intensity. SEs can effectively manage the challenges associated with hybridity by making use of business model typologies. I discuss two business model typologies thathelp manage hybridity. I also discuss further development of this paper at the end.
