10. 10 www.social-economy-training.eu  The role of management according to Mintzberg The specificity of management in social economy and the needs for specific training (ctd.)

11. 11 www.social-economy-training.eu  As a leader, that is as the person who shows the direction, the manager needs to be well aware of the specificities of Social Economy, hence the need for a specific training.  Indeed, most professionals in the field are today recruited based upon their technical skills, and less upon their human skills and the values they are keen on promoting.  Therefore, social economy organisations may be losing the specificities of their culture as they get more ‘professional’ and less ‘militant’, if they don’t give good care to maintaining their culture and values throughout the process.  The addition of a specific management training in social economy appears therefore vital to this professionalization process Retro planning & work packages The specificity of management in social economy and the needs for specific training (ctd)
