Nobel Laureate Dr. Muhammad Yunus - Social Business Danone

[melis1957]

Social business idea and the meaning of which preaches Professor Muhаmmad Yunus for many not familiar. I still think that business - it is purely a private matter or a particular group of people, whether it's family or something else. Professor of the first to speak about the social mission of business. In this his greatness as a humanist.

Multinational Social Business Partnerships which Dr Yunus calls Future Capitalism are the best leadership practice I have encountered in 30 years of advising on world class brands

read his book "banker to the poor" - he talks about how Grameen bank was born and they many obstacles he faced along the way. Really inspirational!

very nice simple explanation of what a Social Business is. Have a look at his new book "Creating a world without poverty".. he goes into this into more detail, and also describes the super idea of social actions.

Let's hope that this gets plenty of take-up.

we need many social actions, and many social businesses...
