Biography
How can we create a sustainable economy that works for everyone? Elizabeth Castillo addresses this problem by investigating intangible assets (e.g., social, cultural, spiritual, reputational, and political capital) and the role they play in producing social, financial, and environmental returns (the triple bottom line). She also studies the relationship between resource exchange choices and social ontology (the social construction of reality). Her interdisciplinary research is inspired by two decades of management experience, primarily at the San Diego Natural History Museum and Balboa Park Cultural Partnership.
Castillo's scholarship is published in academic journals like The Leadership Quarterly and translated for practical use in publications such as Nonprofit Quarterly. She is an avid hiker and nature photographer. Her mission is to repair the world through scholarship that promotes thriving organizations, fulfilled people, connected communities, and a world we can be proud to pass on to our children
