This book elaborates on the distinction between societal innovation and social innovation. It provides eight case studies to illustrate the scope, process, outcome, and impact of societal innovation and social innovation. In addition, the book proposes a model for interested parties to maximize their contribution for the common social good in a systematic and effective way. Case studies are used to illustrate concepts for readers to grasp the real essence of the relatively abstract notions of societal innovation and social innovation. In doing so, the book shows how small efforts can bring big benefits for the under privileged and to society as a whole. This book serves as a helpful resource for government officials, social innovation practitioners, social entrepreneurs, Non Profit Organizations, as well as students who would like to contribute to the common social good.

Dr. Carol Yeh-Yun Lin (PhD, the University of Texas at Austin) is Distinguished Professor of Department of Business Administration at National Chengchi University, Taipei, Taiwan.

Her papers have appeared in the International Journal of Human Resource Management, Journal of Business Ethics, Long Range Planning, Health Care Management Review, Journal of Small Business Management, Journal of Psychology, Journal of Intellectual Capital among others. From 2011 to 2014, Springer New York published her 13 books, relating to national intellectual capital for 48 countries. Before Dr. Lin changed her career to academia, she served as Customer Service Manager in Singer Sewing Machine Companies Taichung Factory for two years and Office Manager in K-Mart Taipei Purchasing Office for six years.
