Atty. Vivian Dabu, former Entrep Student at AGSB Clark, a Remarkable Public Servant

An Ateneo Graduate School of Business Advantage

I am constrained to write a few words on Atty Vivian Dabu, a former student at AGSB Clark.  She could have been an outstanding ASG student and graduate.  When I first saw her, I thought she was an ordianry MBA student.  Later I learned that she was the trusted assistant of Fr. Emong Panilillo, the priest governor of Pampanga.  I learned more about her as she made her presentation and more when I got the embed code of her Grameen bank slideshare presentation. I was surprised on what I found out.

She has ll slides on various topics mostly ethics and government service.  It is good that I had 4 more than her.  Otherwise I would have been shamed.  (Some students shy away from this Slideshare assignment, which they do in Markma anyway and do not want to open a slideshare account).

Here is the link to her slides:

Congratulations Atty.  It was great honor to have been with your company for 8 4 hour session.

Social Entrepreneurship - A Slideshare Presentation by Prof Jorge

Our generation needs an ENTREPRENEURIAL REVOLUTION .Join

This is part of the entrepreneurial revolution. This term was popularized by Bill Drayton of the Ashoka Foundation. In the Phil, one of such fellow is Dr. Tony Lavina of ASG of Ateneo. Other Social Entrepreneurs are Mr. Illac Diaz, Dr V of Aravind Hospital in India (rip+), Dr Mohamad Yunus of Grameen Bank in Bangladesh.

Social Entrepreneurs are not your typical cash burners, or donation solicitors. They use capitalism/entrepreneurship techniques to sustain social services. They are in middle between the profit maximizing business, and non profit ngo (civil society) They do things which neither the government nor business is willing to take for the ills of society.

They create value by creating social value ie solving society's problems.
