Models of Impact is a role-playing and ideation game that makes it easy to generate new and sustainable business models. With a pay-what-you-want business model, Models of Impact includes easy-to-understand instructions for gameplay, a glossary of 200+ business models, and a suite of other helpful resources. Model of Impact walks players through a series of activities in order to simulate the process of ideating and launching a social enterprise in just four steps: LEARN, INVENT, PROGRAM, and REPORT.
This week I speak with Models of Impact Founder, Matt Manos, who is an award-winning design strategist, social entrepreneur, and educator. Matthew is the Founder and Managing Director of verynice, a design strategy consultancy that gives half of its work away for free to nonprofit organizations. Launched in 2008, verynice is known across the globe for being one of the first social enterprises in the design industry.
Called “crazy or genius” by Forbes Magazine, and named one of seven millennials changing the world by The Huffington Post, Matthew’s pioneering work in the field of social entrepreneurship has inspired thousands of practitioners to engage in socially and environmentally responsible business. Matthew speaks at institutions across the globe, and his work and ideas have also been featured in Entrepreneur, GOOD, Maxim, Inc, Fast Company, and Wired.
Let’s do this.
