This case study successfully clarifies the main sources of shared values in the Social Value Creation (SVC) process in both Social Enterprise A (SE A) and Social Enterprise B (SE B). Applying leadership approach and skills is a key source of shared values for SE A and is followed by networking. Meanwhile, SE B places more stress on human values and qualities, especially with the special knowledge owned by social entrepreneurs and their teams, followed by the capacity and resources provided by the company. This case study also successfully identifies a set of similarity values in order to strengthen the Social Business Model (SBM). All those sources of benefits, values under social values and economic values highlighted by both types of SE provided theoretically positives impacts, such as efficient operation, sufficient resources (tangible or intangible), and motivation for both sides. Meanwhile, the benefits of economic values come from the impact of managing the cost, risks, and maximising the profits as well as creating opportunities for both sides. This case study uses Nvivo12 to manage the data. The significance of the study is that it is expected to promote "social enterprise" in this country by strengthening SBM in Social Enterprise. © 2019 Primrose Hall Publishing Group.
