Abstract

The limitations of Yunus' work on social business models are a starting point of our research. After setting out his approach as unusable to analyze all social organizations, we empirically study the different forms of integration social enterprises (WISEs) in France. We then try to identify what are the distinguish features of the business model of the integration social enterprises? Our research shows that specific wasted human resources mobilization, through the organization of five integration's capabilities and three explicit social-intended value propositions shape the business model of WISEs. Based on the results, we suggest the concept of inclusive business model. We also contribute to a better understanding of the business model of social organizations. Finally this research highlights the central importance of strategic intent in business model formulation and invites scholars to conduct future studies on this topic.
