Abstract
This chapter provides an analysis of the concept of social value from a service science perspective. Social value is a concept of great interest to governments, foundations, nonprofits, and corporate social responsibility organizations and a central focus of many policymakers. Service science is an emerging transdiscipline for the (1) study of evolving service system entities and value co-creation phenomena and (2) pedagogy for the education of twenty-first-century T-shaped service innovators from all disciplines, sectors, and cultures who may become social value generators through cross functional engagements. A bridging framework for social value (as calculated by social entities) and individual value (as calculated by individual entities) is presented along with some future research directions.
