[en] Performance evaluation presents two specific difficulties for social enterprises. At the one hand, it is complex to define what performance is, to measure the factors impacting performance through indicators, and to sum up the scores of all the indicators. At the other hand, performance evaluation should vary with the purpose of the evaluation and the type of organization. Thus the characteristics of an ideal performance evaluation tool for social enterprises should both reflect this complexity and be contingent.
