| |  |  | CREATING A WORLD WITHOUT POVERTY
Social Business and the Future of Capitalism MUHAMMAD YUNUS |  |  |  | SUMMARY | EXCERPT
The winner of the Nobel Peace Prize outlines his
vision for a new business model that combines the power of free markets with the quest for a more humane world—and tells
the inspiring stories of companies that are doing this work today
 In the last two decades, free markets
have swept the globe, bringing with them enormous potential for positive change. But traditional capitalism cannot solve problems
like inequality and poverty, because it is hampered by a narrow view of human nature in which people are one-dimensional beings
concerned only with profit. In fact, human beings have many other drives and passions, including the spiritual,
the social, and the altruistic. Welcome to the world of social business, where the creative vision of the entrepreneur is
applied to today's most serious problems: feeding the poor, housing the homeless, healing the sick, and protecting the
planet. Creating a World Without Poverty tells the stories of some of the earliest examples of social businesses,
including Yunus's own Grameen Bank. |

ONE GIGANTIC GAME OF NETWORK SNAP- who wants to play snap with fans of yunus and his microcredit

social and economic needs compound whole truth's upward exponential. Its been through several versions over
30 years -note how trust-flows integrating ever higher communal levels of sistainability at each major decision
Yunus leads 1.0 When Dr Yunus lent a few dolars of his own money to the most productive people anyone had ever
seen. These village ladies worked so hard that they repaid daily credit to laon sharks at rates that most people get charged
annually. 2.0 When Dr Yunus started a bank in each Bangladesh village he could reach so as to invest in wome whose
lifetime's work sustained the village's development. By now each bank helped women get peer to peer training on how
to be most entrepreneurial; all profits made by the bank got reinvested in that village; loans got repaid by village entrepreneurs
at world record breaking percentage of over 98% and this included writing off any loans where creditors died before their
time. 3.0 Upgrading what jobs a female vilage entrpreneur could acccess - when Graneen started the typical loan
was made to buy a cow; today the most popular loan is to become the vilages mobile telegram hub (read all about this in the

to debate future of Grameen 
*K1 Microcredit as led by Grameen offers the greatest
service work there is for those who love to plant seeds so that communities develop sustainably connecting 100 million
families taken out of poverty since 1999 | *V1 Sustaining the development
of a community out of poverty is the greatest vocation and empowering professional wish | *K2 Internal branches of Grameen Bank are
guided by 5 star ratings for the community's local team to aspire to; external supporters of Grameen can action interface
in one of 16 ways (you don't have to be a banker to participate with the 2000 who network annually at microcreditsummit but you do need to bring one of 16 skill sets to the interaction) | *V2
Empower us women as the greatest net of undiscovered micro entrepreneurs | *K3 Probably the world's simplest trust-flow credit model - this can only be replicated by intrapreneurial
leadership teams who empower instead of boss from the top down. 10 years ago: Who would have thought that the banking sector would be nurtured
to demonstrate with the most intrapreneurial franchise on the planet? | *V3 Banking for the poor as the most value
multiplying sustainability investment sector | *K4 Grameen
offers to partner almost any global sector on its own hi-trust value multiplication terms; bring your deepest competence to
Bangladesh, let us implement it strategically, you get goodwill's multiplying gains, we will take the risk that sustaining
the deepest purpose your sector can offer in Bangladesh will not make a lost. Where global partners don't want to play,
Grameen now cherry picks emerging sectors - eg mobiles by investing in the sector at the right time to lead it, return the surplus
to the poor. As the country's favourite brand, there are very few new service sectors that would want to compete head
for head with Grameen. | *V4 eg Grameen Danone - fast food health
foods supplementing dietary gaps of Bangladeshi's- note how K4*V4 proofs the concept that the social business entrepreneurial
stockmarket game is ready for go. | *K5 Supporters clubs are set to emerge in every city; not only does Grameen have one of the top global village summit network meetings of
the year; but it has its own pop group and videos for replaying in 100 languages. As a global academy partner of the supreme grassroots up social entrepreneur association
ashoka, local societies can be guided to the potential synergy of the 2 most empowering micro entrepreneurial networks
in existence: microcredit grameen dialogues and ashoka mosaics | *V5 Hi-trust Collaboration and transparent empowerment from grassroots women
up can put poverty in a museum by the millennial goal deadlines |
Once
an economist, sustainability investor, world citizen or public servant including public broadcasting has proof-checked
that Grameen can multiply value around a 10-win system of productivity and demanding relationships, it seems natural to ask:
does any other global market sector truly compound value multiplication in ways that would reassure John von Neumann and Albert
Einstein regarding urgent advocacy of above zero-sum economics paradigms -as necessary to sustain all our children's
worlds. The next column on the irght will begin this search which Yunus also refers to as mapping out a social business entreprise
stockmarket.
| What good is the human being if we can invent a solution that has

Now that collaborators around Yunus have proved that well
over 100 million families were trapped in poverty while the global market sector of banking excluded banks serving the poor,
it seems that there will never be a better time to revisit every global market sector's true desire to flow goodwill
to all - including those in the news for compounding of loss of human sustainability and those that are not. For
example, what good are global pharma corps if they dont want to invent vacinations that replace costly treatments they are

| Nominations info @worldwcitizen.tv welcomed on whose life-stores you'd
like to see in book of collanoration world's 100 hisghest trust people 
Extract from the fortcoming book on
the missing information citizens need to collaborate around sustainability world's most trusted projects and people COLLABORATION ENTREPRENEURS Mapping 100 Hi-Trust People whose Cross-Cultural Alumni Nets Will Change World This
book asks readers to help fill a gap in worldwide knowledge. There are plenty of global and national surveys on the world’s
richest people. And every sport and fashion has its own league tables which elevate their stars into worldwide consciousness.
However, there are few or no surveys on the world’s most trusted people defined in terms of how deeply and broadly they
inspire other people to act in ways that are best for the world, and human sustainability. Whither Above Zero-Sum and Sustainability
Economics The worldwide attention disorder to mapping hi-trust
human beings is peculiar, not to say economically dismal. It is their goodwill networks which exponentially compound the most
communal value over time, weave cultures' magic colours and empower sustainability of each community rising.
Our goal is to make this discovery –and innovation truth curiosity - clear as you journey through the book. The logic
mapped is the same as the entrepreneurial system foundation on which my father and my 1984 book on how globalisation can economically
sustain better worlds for everyone was founded. http://www.normanmacrae.com/netfuture.html In other words, our mapping of collaboration entrepreneurs has 24 years of searching
practices linked around it as well as abundant case studies on how true value multiplying trust-flow systems can be. Naturally, there are more
nuances to map than just: who are the 100 most trusted? First, collaborative people love to support each other, so we will
see many connections between the heroines and heroes in this guide. Moreover, people on a truly collaborative mission
to improve the human lot are delighted if someone comes along and offers to open source with them an even simpler communal
innovation. So this book is not just about identifying individuals. Our whole truth wish is to search to catalogue
and understand the healthy rivers of trust-flow world – the arenas of human endeavour that can sustain humanity if we
cross-culturally attended to vital challenges of life as much as the late 20th Century did to sports or pop idols 5 Year Future History
of the World My 84 year old dad is the economics world’s
greatest future history writer. http://futurehistorian.tv But when it comes to fueling future histories, as Bill Gates has also observed, there is a vicious 5 year itch
and responsibility sickness. This arises because the exponential curves that mathematically govern human relation system
maps ensure much more transforms for good or ill in 7 years than people expect , much less in three. Consequently, people
at the top who review systemic future histories are liable to moderate double-blinding controversies that sidetrack
better future practice. Our 1984 book on the future of the net was mocked for mapping why the Soviet
Union would crumble within 5 years. For the only time in its history the tabloid Paris
Match carried a front page economics story – Demain Sera Rose – with a lot of Gallic teasing on had The Economist
turned from capitalist red to humanitarian pink. Conversely, Death of Distance projections for deep innovation webs desperately seeking
to integrate local to global networks 7 or more years out were: ticked by decision-makers as eminently doable; Boxed away
as not their job to start up; so lost as responsibility futures of the
world of business and of society. Nonetheless, collaboration entrepreneurship, as a way of viewing the world, has become an ever
greater passion and networking exploration of the authors and their peers over the years since 1984...
...On the one but
last page of this book, we summarise hi-trust contexts where everything is most likely to lead to revolutionary new trust-flow
agents in 5 years time. For example, with Sir Nick Stern’s challenge: "find wholly new ways to invest 1%
of national wealth in energy" 1-year old at time of writing, it would be infantile to expect that we could already have
found that context's highest trust people. Similarly the former president of India has launched in summer 2007 a Lead India campaign challenging youth to tear up every educational curricula
that is not sustainable. Simultaneously, Britain’s
Gordon Brown has July 2007 at the United Nations issued a citizens empowerment speech http://peoplepower.jp the like of which a mass mediated world has seldom dared listen to. And in cheerleading sociaql business entreprise
stock markets, Dr Yunus is going city to city inviting 1000 collaboration entrepreneurs to take back whole truth’s community-developing
practice of impossible becomes possible if right action, right place, right time, right people. This is music to
the ears of Gandhian networks celebrating in 2007 the centenary of Satyagraha- the systems mapping of leadership that Einstein
rated as evidently top for indexing sustainability investment. How to explore collaboration in "best
for world" way that peoples everywhere can share ENTREPRENEURIAL MAPPING OF SUSTAINABLE INVESTMENT The word entrepreneur was coined in 1800 to ensure
that society was never excluded from the map of productivities and demands. After all a local community serves up natural
resources, people learning, good health and all sorts of other human, natural and goodwill energies without which no organisation
could start up in a place. So how could it be that any organisation would intentionally exclude what social good it does
to societies it impacts - how could it be that man could design organsiations that have cost nature so much that we now have
an invest 1% to save 20% exponentials crisis which is upping both antes at exponentail rates the more we lurk? Checklist
of how a map is being stewarded: -contextual detail matters and must over-rule any profession's attempt to
rule with a global standard -truth flows must not be blocked either within the map's sub-departments or across
boundaries from one organisation to another | Some
sectors whose behaviours since the invention of the spreadsheet require urgent attention by soicety: all ruling professions
- none appear to have wanted to revisit the rules which they monopolise even theough it is clear that prefer machines to people
and boundaries that are the greatest risk when networks connect much media: often demographic government profiteer by licensing
a new mediaor simply gain by by giving the people a tax break which helps re-elect the party in charge. Nonethess giving media
away to commerce is giving away the commons and history shows that over time untruth conseqeun ces of horrific cost has often
compounded from this error life critical utilities such as water and clean energy - here the problem is that standard accountinmg's
models are worst maths possible whereve they fail to integrate how future costs will compound or make a utility tresponsible
to every human being's right to at least minimal access of life empowering services |
-there
must be a future joy of detecting any emerging conflicts and resolving them - this is actually how all innovation should
be modelled even though very few academics in the 20th century have wholly mapped innovation this way- over quarter a century ago,
one of the 20th cnetury's greatest faciliators of organsiational transfromation Harrison Owen provided a way for meetings
where the right people come at the right time ... and at a dinner qith senoir management acdemics, the response was Harion
if you are correct 95% of what we teach about management is incorrect. In parallel intraperenurship and other compoents of
The Economiost trilogy of Entrepreneurial Revolution provide all the evidence we need that Harrison Owen's Open Space
technology is the simplest method any child should experience first in getting to understand why community, commons, cross-cultural
joy and other deeply human conseqeunces compound with serving the golden rule that so far sustained our species: relationship
reciprocity. The exponential curves that determine your life. Nature regards expoential curves as the most natural
in her systems world. The same is known in common parlance when people talk about experience's learning curves. The same
patterning accelerates wherever we network or biodiversity webs. For some unaccountable reason
global accountants and others who use spreadsheets seldom analyse what future expoentials are compounding even though
in year 2000 the risks of not doing so were laid out to be absolutely critical in a report chaired by Margaret Blair called
Unseen Wealth. Goodwill is the major value multiplier in human relations economies -ie all ones where people
develop or internetwork value multipliers in ways that the manufactiring age's machines cannot. Denying thjis
is the biggest mathematical mistake ever made and it is where the roots of all human sustainability crises
can be mapped back.

Home Truths.
Don't just assume a charity is 10-win.
Roundtable audit its transparency. Back in 1989, I was writing a book on the world's biggest brands -which I had spent the 1980s researching. I has having a fierce conversation with some "do
evil" valuation measures which accountants were newly programming into spreadsheet valuation of brands.
Their argument was brands live in a world of promises and perceptions and that is the only effectiveness they need to be measured
by. I countered that the only global brands I'd ever want to a child of mine surrounded by would as powerful human/communal
relations systems would need to double loop trust by attending all te time to organsiational maps for seeing
trust-flow, not just budgeting lost of money for image-making. Nearly 20 years on, I have seen more and
more global sectors slip from innovating progess for humanity to externalising their greatest risks onto whatever cosumers, societies
or employees know least. However I confess I hadn't fully reflected on whether this might apply to the worlds
biggest charitable powers until being challenged to audit whether Grameen is 10-win. From every data stream that has been
networked into me, Grameen truly is all-win. But as I mapped this I realised how many extraordinary innovations Yunus
and his teams have made over 30 years to stay conflict free. This made me wonder : how about other globally well known
charities. I am sorry to say that being subject to the same unseen wealth auditing and boundaries (always a terribly risky
locus in a networked) age, few global charities can be found that are compounding global good- certainly very few of
those who don't ask how might wea ccidentaly be infected by conflicts that once in the system compound
ever more loss of trust-flow. Some references: 1

Comment on this story Read comments
Muhammad Yunus is no diplomat or politician; he is simply an economist. Yet as the Nobel Peace Prize committee
recognised yesterday, he has done more to help the world than virtually anyone alive today. Mr Yunus's
insight was simple, and is worth quoting: "Charity is not the answer to poverty. It only helps poverty to continue."
He realised that, even if the vast amount of Western aid reached its intended targets, it would merely create dependency and
suppress initiative. His solution was to start at the bottom – to offer small loans, at commercial rates of interest,
to those in his native Bangladesh with no collateral and no credit rating. It was, in essence, a gamble on the goodwill and
industry of humanity. That faith, we are pleased to report, has been amply vindicated. Mr Yunus's
creation, the Grameen Bank, has handed out more than $5.7 billion since 1983, with repayment rates consistently in the 90
to 100 per cent range. It has helped more than six million people, 97 per cent of them women, become part of the global economy;
it has inspired similar groups, in more than 40 countries, to offer loans to more than 90 million people. By trusting the
people of the developing world, rather than dictating to them, Mr Yunus created the most effective way to reduce poverty. |
Congratulations
to the Grameen Bank and founder Muhammad Yunus, who have won the Nobel Peace Prize for their pioneering work in providing
small loans to the rural poor in Bangladesh. Our work in financial services has been inspired and informed by the work of
Dr. Yunus, the bank, and the bank's Grameen Foundation. To learn more, visit the Grameen Foundation's Web site.

FOR VITAL OPEN SOURCE SOLUTION MAPS Yunus says what value multiplying competence has man if he invents a better for the world
invention but then cant work out how to market it freely wherever it could most save lives. He is using his goodwill as most
trusted and collaborative brand in better for the world to connect every other sustainability solution in no-cost global market
awareness. Recent examples: He’s wants to pilot Taddy Blecher’s free university model but with Bangladeshi Women He’s extending the
ten times lower cost models that Prahalad has found to Bangladesh – eg Aravind’s eye care model His pop group is helping
issue invitations that thousands of young at heart networkers in every city can bring their most 10-win ideas to a joint meeting
and see who wants to collaborate with who – a city by city celebration of what 10-win models can we identify and multiply (search for more) 1.2 YOU CAN HEAR ME NOW: Yunus
partnerships are already the greatest at bridging digital divides. As revolutionary as banking that wants its creditors
to sustian the most productive investemnts in their own flows is using the mobile phone to be a disconnected vilages first
telegram office. Think how that maximises value of a mobile in exactly oposite way that attention deficited (non-flowing) city
slickers minise value of being connected. His partner in you can hear me now now leads MIT's development entrepreneur
school; and as american uni's go MIT is the most open source on the planet. eg the same facutly do the $100 dollar laptop
and 1000 person wikin collabortaing on how to connect whole nations of 5-10 year olds through that.

to such sustainability investment and above zero-sum analysis methods ( at clinton, at skoll, at microcreditsummit, at The

Imagine a globalization where change world travel guides are as common as guides to hotels ... where changers league tables are as popularly as sporting world
cups and sustainability fields of pursuit are heroised by public broadcasters like the British Broadcast Corporation ... where every being - woman, child or man - recalled the broadcast question of Queen Elizabeth (25 Decemeber 2005) - "Is Humanity Turning on Itself?" Can you help us prepare change economics interventions needed before world citizens can the the right to reply "no
worries your majesty" - sustainability is now core to how goodwill valuation of every global industry sector is audited. Our Scottish editors wish for a return to common human sense of Adam Smith. His ethical approach to a discipline, soon
known as economics, mapped world trades that compounded value exchanges by entrepreneurial participants - hi-trust and transparency are necessary qualities in innovating what all peace-loving societies want free
markets to be networked around. Imagine... a world where Nobel Prizes go to the likes of Yunus and Grameen from 2006 on... ABOUT worldcitizen.tv family of webs : we are founded by 2 generations of media families who are alarmed that 99%
of world news is no longer covered by broadcasters, even those owned by the people. We believe that grassroots human interest
stories and hi-trust entrepreneurial energies have gone missing from the way instant global reporting is systemised. Our antidote is to offer space for stories
people would like covered so that journalists and students of the life's critical futures questions can doublecheck
any reality gaps of instant image-making or political soundbiting. Grameen focuses on inspiration from the poorest;
herstory from women and other segragated classes within or across nations; SQtest asks how to value Sustainability
Qutient tests of top people's intelligence flows and modes of governace. Do they map transparenctly enough to
sustain all our children's futures? We invite other .tv affilates to join us in search of a world that integrates every
society's productivities and just demands, freedoms and joys. Some .tv webs for
humanity look messy - like giant innovation jigsaw puzzles connecting history and future, crossing cultures, and

to grameen.tv: by ashoka changemakers.net As Women Get Stronger,
Fundamentalism Wanes The New Anatolian / Ankara Muhammad Yunus is a member of Ashoka's Global Academy for Social Entrepreneurship. Visiting Turkey as a guest
of Parliament Speaker Bulent Arinc, Professor Muhammad Yunus, held a press conference yesterday after a seminar entitled "The role of microcredit in reducing poverty and necessary
legal regulations." Asked whether there's a parallel between fundamentalism and falling poverty, Yunus responded
affirmatively, saying that rates of fundamentalism will fall as women begin to become empowered. Yunus said that his
bank advises all women who receive microcredit to use their right to vote in elections. Saying that the Bangladeshi fundamentalist
party had 17 deputies in 1996, Yunus explained that the number fell to three after the women receiving microcredits began
to use their votes. The professor praised results of the first launch of a pilot MF program in
Diyarbakir, in southeastern Turkey. Yunus, who also visited Turkey in 2003 as the guest of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip
Erdogan, said that ruling Justice and Development (AK) Party Diyarbakir Deputy Aziz Akgul assumed responsibility for the credit program. "It's not about that Akgul has a special talents, but about his attitude
of being a responsible person," he said. Akgul said that the project had provided 3,200 entrepreneurs a credit
of $2.7 million. "All of these credits were paid back," said Akgul and added that the micro finance trend first
set up in Diyarbakir will spread to Van, Sanliurfa and Batman. archives Washington, DC, November 1, 2006—the Microcredit Summit announces that more than 113 million
clients received tiny loans last year to start or expand small businesses, 82 million of whom were among the world’s
poorest people...

actions, communally why. A better for the world map needs a lot of continuous engineering care, however its usability
can be tested by everyone. Mapping's user quality of what you see is what you connect needs to be
just as true of any organsiation's map as it is of a road map- and that goes for corporations, charities, governments,
professions, media and communities and networks. The simplest way to start mapping who is multiplying value

can charter following to be “near enough” to how if we will all do it now. We work back every 10-win above zero-sum

yunus invests in. You will find they all value multiply each other up in every productive and demanding relationship it is
possible for hi-trust to flow. I will put following up on right hand side of page 1 of http://grameen.tv –please will
the 2 of you -Alan*Sofia - tell me how to co-edit it and link it better. Please will you meet and make sure we can all see
enough of the same charter of why everyone can sustain the world if their methods collaborate win-win-win with yunus benchmarks
(and these are essentialy modelled on the exponentials and 10-win molecules of the map) 1.0
What actions has Yunus achieved- the greatest end poverty movement in history because it is the most empowering human productivity (flow measured ) model because it is liberating the most under-employed resources (women) because it is

people no electricity so we are giving a small loan to establish solar home system in their houses and they paying back within
3 years they become owner of solar home system. The solar home system is for 25 years so they getting light and they have
extension of working hour they have income generation and under the light their children have a better education they can
watch television and radio and they can energize the battery of mobile phones.

from PlanetFinance On all continents, Banks for the Poor evolved following the Grameen Bank example. Today, they operate in 85 countries.
However, while in some countries needs are covered (e.g. in Bangladesh and in Bolivia), the majority of most populated regions
have almost no access to microfinance services. In the case of South America, the most populated countries -Brazil, Mexico,
Argentina- face the worst situation.It appears that until now, the Banks for the Poor evolved in countries displaying a minimum
of political and economic stability. Most big countries where there is no MFI are those that experience internal conflicts
or those that receive very little international support. |

| FRom our scrapbook -older content due
to be re-edited: Send us (info@worldcitizen.tv) other world's number 1 contenders on empowerment. We will benchmark these by the same transparency
valuation methods that we apply here to Grameen. One way to view empowerment is any hi-trust organisational system that values how goodwill and trust compound. Empowerment
is a human relations quality that applies at every level in which people spend their life's skills and service development in
teams, social nets and as organsiations, as families and local communities as well as individual beings. Flow measures for how productively is the world being organised so that
every being has a chance to make a difference are simply studied at the School that Peter Drucker sustained at Claremont
-today's benchmark researcher is Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Claremont.His benchmark metric for tracking
human productivity- what % of your lifetime's exponential do you spend at the experiential edge of your deepest
(most uniquely value multiplying) competence. Just imagine if we designed organisational system to raise the empowerment
productivity of all peoples - what an abundant sustainable joyful world the economics of service and true knowledge networking could be! More explorations of empowerment entrepreneurship as the most

cities sincerely, chris macrae http://grameen.tv http://worldentrepreneur.net Letters to SanFran (1) | SynopsisThe winner of the Nobel Peace Prize
outlines his vision for a new business model that combines the power of free markets with the quest for a more humane world-and
tells the inspiring stories of companies that are doing this work today. In the last two decades, free markets have
swept the globe, bringing with them enormous potential for positive change. But traditional capitalism cannot solve problems
like inequality and poverty, because it is hampered by a narrow view of human nature in which people are one-dimensional beings
concerned only with profit. In fact, human beings have many other drives and passions, including the spiritual, the
social, and the altruistic. Welcome to the world of social business, where the creative vision of the entrepreneur is applied
to today's most serious problems: feeding the poor, housing the homeless, healing the sick, and protecting the planet.
Creating a World Without Poverty tells the stories of some of the earliest examples of social businesses,
including Yunus's own Grameen Bank. It reveals the next phase in a hopeful economic and social revolution that is already
under way-and in the worldwide effort to eliminate poverty by unleashing the productive energy of ever human being. BooksellerThe
influential economist and winner of the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize outlines his vision for a new business model that combines
the power of of free markets with the quest for a more humane world. Includes stories of companies that are already doing
social business. More Reviews and Recommendations BiographyMuhammad Yunus, a native of Bangladesh, was educated at Dhaka University and was awarded
a Fulbright scholarship to study economics at Vanderbilt University. In 1972 he became head of the economics department at
Chittagong University. He is the founder and managing director of Grameen Bank, a pioneer of microcredit, an economic movement
that has helped lift millions of families around the world out of poverty. Yunus and Grameen Bank are winners of the 2006
Nobel Peace Prize.
