A business planning framework designed for restorative outcomes
The canvas’ function is similar to others popularized in the marketplace, but different in that it includes the elements that represent biblical values and redemptive impact. In this way, the whole story of the business is told in one place. It also ensures that redemptive considerations are integrated throughout the business and not an afterthought.
The canvas was co-created by Hannah Lau and Philip Yan in 2024 at the Centre for Redemptive Entrepreneurship (Tyndale University) in Toronto, Canada. Since then, it has been use around the world by entrepreneurs, business operators, coaches, consultants, investors, ministries, and educational institutions.
To date, the canvas has proven to be sector and business-size agnostic.
