This research encompasses an exciting journey in social entrepreneurship. Based on a comprehensive study of a not-for-profit business enterprise dependent on social capital, the three phase model of entrepreneurship (Greve and Salaff 2003) was employed to recognize comparative stages for developing social trust, an important indicator of social capital. Data from historically documented day to day diary records and in-depth interviews were examined and evaluated by “N.Vivo” content analysis, with the purpose of achieving profitability in the “third sector” Results demonstrated the influence of social trust on sustainability and entrepreneurial growth; with specific emphasis on the donor – enterprise alliance, a dominant control factor.

But Marblehead resident Bob McNulty found an opportunity to change things when he brought together two groups of professors to take part in Bentley University's weeklong global ethics seminar as part of a business-for-peace initiative.

"What we are trying to do is to look at the issue not at the summit level but on the valley level," McNulty explained. "It was important to find people of high esteem who recognize the need to find peaceful means to work together to further the peace process."

Taking a break from a flurry of meetings held during the week, McNulty, the director of programs for the university's Center for Business Ethics, stopped to talk about the seminar with the academics whom he had brought in for the event, including Dr. Samir Abuznaid of Palestine, Israeli professors Eugene Jaffe and Liora Katzenstein, and Palestinian assistant professor Mohammed Bader.

Far away from their conflicting homelands, two Israeli and two Palestinian business professors met for the first time recently on American shores, even going as far as to share personal stories of success and struggles during a weeklong event that culminated with a party in Marblehead.

During the week, friendships developed between the professors, which, in their respective homelands, would be a rarity.

For more than six decades, Arabs and Israelis have been embroiled in a raging conflict that has no end in sight, one marked by failed government peace initiatives. The conflict has caused immense suffering for both groups of people. In many instances, Israelis and Palestinians stand in opposition to one another, rarely having the chance to come together.
