This blog is a generalised public version of more specific debates that ER friends and I are have
been building with different professional groups since 1976 towards 2010s being youths most productive
decade. In 1976, Entrepreneurial Revolution networks first
started linking in around my father's launch of genre of ER (Entrepreneurial Revolution) at The Economist Xmas day issue,
and the year I started searching for database modeling partners (eg MIT) of what societies most wanted from every type
of global market. In 2010, with father's death, youth and collaborators are are merging these networks around Foundation Norman
Macrae (The Economist's Unacknowledged Giant) with a central project being celebration of 100 leaders
of 2010s = youths most productive decade
around http://yclub100.com/ our search believes that with 1 million times more collaborative technology than when I grew up with elders racing to
the moon, 2010s will be youths most productive decade everywhere on mother earth - yes we can design economics and
other hi-trust professional convergence to celebrate reality of valuing youths lifetimes everywhere
some of the professions
I have met in the last 35 years that I invite to dialogues on pro-youth economics and 2010s productivity are: media accounting risk analysts valuation experts economists educators how technology change knowledge
work and networking future scenario facilitators and conflict resolution hosts lawyers opinion researchers/
statistician modellers translators of cross-cultural and cross-dmographic joy
if you are in one of these professions
and want to interact, please suggest how
if you think there is another profession that would want to engage in debate
of 2010s as youths most productive decade, how do we start geeting in touch-
Join Financial Times debate on what future capitalism? ...What
do Pro-youth Economists do?ER & ...comment on journalists view of what's wromg with usa schools ...Do you share the optimistic determination of investing
in next generation interacted by friends of The Economist’s Unacknowledged Giant as well as the founding
fathers of the revolution of digital media’s ecology? There are 2 opposite economics and futures that can be spun by
capitalism???
British Prime Minister David Cameron pledged on Monday to use the Olympics and celebrations marking

1European welfare systems live as we all know on the costs of future generation-
this is important to understand we all live because weput leverage on future generations – its easy
to make these budget decisions because we have someone on the table who is not existing yet
2we
will have unsolved social issues- now if we had social welfare systems that were affordable sustainable probably we would
not sit here
3there is huge disillusionment especially in young generations about the economical and political
setting – and actually do we really trust these institutions that they are able to resolve these issues
...we'll
relay ideas to ER friends in Dhaka, and through Saint James

2 Keep job-destroying professions out of trying to improve solutions
3 Understand net generation difference

this its not worth getting youth or regions in debt paying for it

Dear New ER
Friend
Its fantastic to hear
of all your peer progress in this extraordinary networking@ decade
It would be great to meet to see if we are linking round similar entrepreneurs and
valuation processes. An example of a development entrepreneur, I wish the whole net generation could know more
about is sir fazle abed www.brac.net with replicable social solutions (in health, digital cash, natural capital- clean value
chains for water, food, energy, education …) His former chief of staff tania zaman is a neighbour of mine if you would
like to meet both of us. Having spent 4 years mapping Bangladesh's greatest grassroots (family investing) entrepreneurs,
the next region whose development entrepreneurs - transparency and sustainability - my father instructed me to most
urgently map is china.
Here’s
my family’s story and urgent networking search:
My
father became known as The Economist’s Unacknowledged Giant for his 40 years of analysis of Entrepreneurial modeling of Economics. His 2 main concerns for
all our childrens futures were
1
What if increasingly the world is ruled only by economics – Keynes required his last alumni including
dad to take a Hippocratic Oath for this responsibility- my dad’s way of doing this was to analyse every economic system
–and leadership decision - by whether it was investing in the next generation’s productivity out of every community
2 What if
one net generation was challenged by unprecedented media change and connectivity –so unlike past civilizations
whose lack of adaptation have failed separately, we are all in the same worldwide boat. How to prevent orwell’s ending
(also a compound risk concern of Einstein and Von Neumann) and celebrate 10 times more productivity was the subject of the
book dad and I wrote in 1984. http://www.normanmacrae.com/netfuture.html
By dads last few years it was clear that we are crashing every exponential we had
timelined including peace dividends, green dividends, educational transformation of knowledge networked age, financial transformation,
and cross-cultural celebration of millennium goals all youth could vote for networking life’s work around. Since his
death last summer and launched out of The Economist boardroom last November, I have tried to evolve a family foundation
round projects linked to his way of valuing leadership: the simplest yclub100.com seeks to identify 100 leader who determine 2010s can be youths most productive decade. For
example one leader hosts youth1000 job creation brainstorms everywhere that demands this.
My 20 year associates of world class
brands aim to leak news of yclub100 composition and launch of journal on new economics to selected bbc journalists
just before the Olympics in such a way that they can help question whether global brands could find a more economical way
to celebrate their mission than ad spots at olympics
As a cherry on the top, on Friday the EU(cheered on by 800 citizens) launched a billion dollar fund to search out
those entrepreneurs whose extreme social solutions need to be connected through every community. UK minister Nick Hurd called
this a historic time on which Europe’s future as Union depends. Denmark’s minister stated the search for 100 entrepreneurs
who can most change society and youths prospects by nominating the specialists http://specialisterne.com/ that aims to create jobs for 1 million people with autism - the same network were mention
as the fisrt great winners of the ipad in the steve jobs biography and are a core research area at MIT media lab. Denmark
chairs the EU for the next year and demands the most transparent accounting of its corporates valuation of leadership responsibility.
So in spite of all the bad economic news on tv screens every night perhaps
youthful productivity can rise exponentially if networkers select optimal collaboration entrepreneurs now.

Coming From Adam Smith’s DreamLand Going to?..
What we see in Bangladesh is the emergence of multi-win models that truly realise Adam Smith’s dream
of (entrepreneurial economics) system for investing in next generation’s productivity out of every community
First Consider productivity inputs to a free market's exchnage
of productivities and demands
*P1: Grameen and BRAC are designed round investing in peoples productive and lifelong learning curves
:*P2: They multiply value of group productivity
such as Grameen ‘s teams of 5, or hubs of 60
*P3 They are empowered by intrapreneurial leaders whose behaviours mimic the writings of The Economist’s Unacknowledged Giant in every
way that knowledge networking leaders need to be different from the age of bossy masters of administration
*P4: Society’s resources are also maximized because that’s
in the intergenerational culture of these organisations’ race to end poverty as specified by village mothers
One of Europe's few best chances out of the global financial
tsunami caused by wall street is the bbc. This is the number 1 people owned broadcaster- the largest continuous social investment
made by peoples anywhere. If interested in helping make the case to free the BBC:
ask for our 2004 presentation to 1000 Gandhians at the Indira Gandhi National Cultural centre on this topic, or the meeting
notes of our 7 year collaboration entrepreneur competition to change the BBC hosted at Islingon brand of the-hub.net
Historically The Economist's Unacknowledged Giant reports that the BBC has been muzzled by politicians and Rupert Murdoch from fulfiling its number 1 purpose- making it exciting to search out heroes with social solutions
that every community needs to replicate if the 2010s is to be youths most productive decade
Ideas always welcome
on how to get the BBC to embrace Entrepreneurial Revolution. Now that the president of the european union has declared this search europe's last chnace, will the BBC sing a new song
idea 1 do enough
youth 1000 jobs brainstorming sessions in the UK before the olympics so that people starting asking companies that blithely spend a billion dollars on ads around the olympics if they are really friends of youth if they can't find a ten thousandath
of that to sponsor a youth jobs creation competition - and then the bbc can do the most joyful documentaries what becoming
a superstar of job brainstorming can lead to -donald trump apprentices need not apply!!

The Game andthe players circle
The Game has eight chairs out of which
players question each other on multiplying trust around human productivities and demands.
In the book "Joy of Economics" we choose 9 players –the two eldest Adam S &
James W share a chair, the other 7 have a chair to themselves.
The Game can also include facilitators – in our first round of Games, we chose
two USA CEOs :
Mackey who asks interesting questions on unique purpose of sectors, and Anderson
who asks why can't any industry sector be led to be 100% sustainable by 2020 .
Facilitators help players see if there are any other issues of leadership and ownership that can connect and compound all
their flows to be multi-win and not multi-lose. In the accompanying web of The Game we listen to your ideas linking
in other players
The circle the players commune round is designed to help see any marketplace as providing gravitational
context (including productivity leaders and demanding owners) to energising 4 entreprenurial levels of productivity inputs:
*Individual or familial
*Team, peer to peer practice networks *Business systems to be led to collaborate above zero sum as well as compete to evolve a global market
place *Societies that invest natural and communally human resources 4 levels of exciting demands : *co-workers demands *customers demands *demands human race makes of global progress
for humanity
*demands made by local communities so that integration sustains healthy and wealthy development through generations
Our players' lives are all profiled on wikipedia but the appendix lists some
of the life influencing actions that happened to our players giving them uniquely curious and innovative perspectives Briefly:

investment networks for the poor come together for a once in a lifetime collaboration of sustainability knowhow and extreme
innovation. Yes We Can networks from all round the planet are linking in. Kenya is offering to become an R&D laboratory
for projects Obama cannot test in USA. The Queen of Spain is the first world dignatory to ask will it help if she attends.
Do eee if your nation's great & good can understand why this opportunity to renew millenniuml goals with replicable projects
is the most exciting event in Africa - and perhaps on the planet - in recent times.

I don’t know if you ever met my dad’s 40 years of entrepreneurial revolution editorials at The Economist 1950-1989 but as per the one-pager enclosed he agrees with the probability that up to half of
the biggest banks need to be put into administration
I have been working to understand Muhammad Yunus micro-up baking solutions on this and how to make sure that 18-25 year olds know about this choice. For example, our free
DVD with good news youtubes from yunus and his friends is being used to research views of 10000 youth
So
far the number 1 problem fed back by university students is that curriculum is still examining the old world as if non-transparent
big banking will be the new normalcy as well as the old. I feel empathic with the most inquiring of these young minds. If
you know of any professors who would join Dr Muhammad Yunus in a panel whose names or work helped accelerate change of curriculum
, I would love to be told whom to contact
HISTORY & A Microeconomist's WinWinWin Networking Wish
Between 1997-2006 Dr Yunus and friends networked
the most extraordinary entrprepeurial revolution called microcreditsummit 123. When I met Dr Yunus in Dhaka his new year resolution for 2008 -please can social action teams inspired by youth's curiosity start mapping microsummits for healtheducationenergymediagov and pro -with such big goals for humanity that each cheers up the world and winwinwins with as much goodwill multiplication as

Changing Economics In
the new century's first decade, the introduction of the international Centrobank was the last great act of government before
government grew much less important. It was not a conception of policy-making governments at all, but emerged from the first
computerised town meeting of the world. By 2005 the gap in income and expectations between the rich and poor nations
was recognised to be man's most dangerous problem.
Internet linked television
channels in sixty-eight countries invited their viewers to participate in a computerised conference about it, in the form
of a series of weekly programmes. Recommendations tapped in by viewers were tried out on a computer model of the world economy.
If recommendations were shown by the model to be likely to make the world economic situation worse, they were to be discarded.
If recommendations were reported by the model to make the economic situation in poor countries better, they were retained
for 'ongoing computer analysis' in the next programme.
The truth of this 2005
breakthrough tends to irk the highbrow. It succeeded because it was initially a rather downmarket network television programme.
About 400 million people watched the first programme, and 3 million individuals or groups tapped in suggestions. Around 99
per cent of these were rejected by the computer as likely to increase the unhappiness of mankind. It became known that the
rejects included suggestions submitted by the World Council of Churches and by many other pressure groups. This still left
31,000 suggestions that were accepted by the computer as worthy of ongoing analysis. As these were honed, and details were
added to the most interesting, an exciting consensus began to emerge.
Later programmes
were watched by nearly a billion people as it became recognised that something important was being born. These audiences were
swollen by successful telegimmicks. The presenter of the first part of the first programme was a roly-poly professor who was
that year's Nobel laureate in economics, and who proved a natural television personality. He explained that economists now
agreed that aid programmes could sometimes help poor countries, but sometimes most definitely made their circumstances worse.

social impact of UK's big events of 2012
With the one exception of France, I think it is almost obscene how little social business has been discussed as a job creating
catalyst across Europe (let alone USA). Here is a conversation starter for 10. Is it really that complex, or why isnt this
discussed everywhere young people chat?
In developed nations, an exciting job creation lesson from social business is: develop
a franchise serving something that many communities need enough to be able to pay for but open source the franchise
to community ownership.
SO Unlike corporate franchises that typically look for 20% profit extraction,
any positive cashflow model above 0% return works. Thus such franchises can afford to be more learning intensive with happier co-workers
which often makes for a better local service. Additionally, there are many services including those linked in to green
technology or information tech (which today can offer a just in time local service that a nationwide organisation is
nott geared to) assisted franchises that have a natural advantage to bottom up scaling rather than a top-heavy management
structure. See Norman MACRAE's observations on the joy of intrapreneurship which are 30 years old and still far too entrepreneurial for most busieness schools or banking chains to celebrate.
Assuming the above isn't that complicated, why dont developed nations try social business job creation? We the people
need to brainstorm this, as the evidence is our governments wont until we do. And as for our media's capability to stimulate
job creation, well if you have come across a large scale media that truly helps with job creation - do tell us!
Is it because governments dont like to empower but want to govern over? Is it because some of the most needed services
would celebrate apprenticeships and more informal approaches than complete professional qualifications (whose certainty of
what'[s right is often bought with historical inertias frefered in). Is it because we no longer have local markets and knowhow
spaces owned by and for communities?
Or is it because of lack of imagination in terms of where to get initial
funds. In this respect the UK has come up with an idea worth flying all over Europe (particularly places with huge youth underemployment
like Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland). In the UK , about half a billion dollars lies in dormant bank accounts that haven't
been used for 15 years. Why not invest this in youth social business funds. http://www.youtube.com/safebanks
A government could always insure the small percentage that might get reclaimed by their long-silent owners.
Doubtless some banking laws might need redrafting but is that a reason why we should stop job creation for youth all
over Europe? Another way ahead would be to develop a kiva-type inter-family funding mechanism within an European nation or
county but one that specialised in listing open community franchises that had already demonstrated their value.

The netfuture subnetwork of ER has been mapping end poverty networkers and their open solutions since 1984,,,,
Why is Bangladesh Social Business 100% model the simplest if not always the opitimal system design
for newtirks concerened with compounding end of poverty?
Mathematically when one group is
conflicting a value multiplying exchange (ie trapping a free market) for all other sides , simplicity's move is to take that
side out of the map; see if the other parties can design a win-win-win map . Then an optional next move being to then unite
a win-win-win group in renegotiating with the conflicting party in terms of what that party will need to innovate if it is
to be permitted to be communally intagrated again
Share ownership has been the greatest conflict with sustaining
communities or any great social goal as well as a fatal conceit of macroeconomics -especially that kind of ownership
spreadsheet blindly by many global professions who keep the score on how one side takes as a maximum every quarter from
every other side
so the bangladesh SB100 model excludes short-term owners by putting 100% of ownenership (in trust)
of those in greatest need among participants in the system; its other main criteria are : positive cashflow model; no dividends
- all being reinvested in unique purpose; transparent multi-win model
other dynamics of course need constant checking
- as even the above map doesnt guarantee that the model is continuously improving its economy of purpose and depth of
sustainability though it goes a long way
so 100% ownership in trust is simplest -and guarantees all the productive
work of members is reinvested in the community (none being extracted out by richer people); however the question we ask is
when would you find it valid to let up to 49% of ownership be in hands of others than those in most desperate need provided
that constitutionally the 51% ownership by those with life critical need oof the service's purpose is never breached. One
example could be when some of the technology the orgasnaition needs most in being invented by young people in developed nations'
capitals, and where they as founders are as interested in the long-term goals but believe they need some capital to negotiuate
ongoing parterships and experiment with serial innovation from a position of financial strength
another reason
why 100% ownership is simplest occurs when many people are volunteering their time or resources to the organisation; at the
very least they should know of the hybrid ownership; there is also the issue of taxation, logically the SB100 model would
appear to merit equality of status with eg charities but is that the case if ownership is even 1% chnaged as in a SB99 model-
these are very contextual questions which we dont believe standards can expect to deeply answer. At the same time, note
that is only by starting with simplicity of SB100 benchmark can all these great questions be mediated
in a whole truth and open way.
Appendix:The Purpose
of Entrepreneurial Revolutionaries
Practice and leadership networks of Entrepreneneurial Revolution
emerged round The Economist’s Unacknowledged Giant Norman Macrae since his 1976 survey on how ER maps the ways systems
design the future of the human race. We are committed to pro-youth models of economics and the belief that 7 billion people
can advance the human lot - empowering our children to be more productive and sustain more than our (elder) generation’s
possibilities. Better futures depend on cross-cultural openness in questioning history’s constraints and conflicts,as well as how truly heroic goals are celebrated. Reality not image is of core concern to our valuation of leadership
and empowerment.
Four particular foci of ER are 1) metrics and 2) media, 3) what innovation of deepest purpose
integrates and 4) how risks and conflicts require relentless resolution using bottom-up contextual appreciation.
Since 1984, our networks were the first to question the unprecedented change of the coming net generation 1984-2024.
According to Norman Macrae’s future maps, only two opposite outcomes are possible locally and globally: 10 time more
productivity for all 7 billion beings, or an Orwellian ending that brings into question sustainability of more and more communities,
peoples and nature’s support of the human race as an evolutionary fit species
Since 1990,
we have pioneered a centre of gravity approach to leading future goals. Who would uniquely miss what if this leadership gravity
didn’t exist? This approach values how gravities collaboratively interconnect unlike historical 20th C professional
assumptions that make the cardinal error of misunderstanding human relationship quality in an interconnecting age. The biggest
mathematical mistake of millennium 3 is assuming separability in how every system is governed or valued. We have innovated
an integrated view of multi-win models where value multiplication depends on the quality of mapping
1.hi-trust gravity (also known as purposeful goodwill),
2.transparency of access to information by all who are most passionately linked in to an unique purpose
3.sustainability’s exponential curves understood mathematically as a compounding future investment
in ways wholly congruent to natures own evolutionary rules
4.We explicitly value boundaries as where most risk of collapsing networks lurk unless these loci
are openly questioned at every performance cycle. Since 1990 we have audited hundreds of systems that traditional professions
valued as multi billion dollar entities but which turned out to be at the tipping point of zeroising unless urgentleadership changes were pervasively encouraged. This approach applies to the sustainability of trillion dollar global
markets as well as the main organisational gravities composing them
Is this macrae's simplest model for investing in developing peoples?
A simple model for developing nations
(by developing we follow Cambridge doctorate of
Manmohan Singh to mean: a nationaiming to be sustainably better for its next generation and which achieves
this without doing evil to others )
A nation
develops economically if:
Savings culture is stronger
than consumption culture. However the impact of this on mapping productive and demanding value exchnage systems is
contingent on
1 Processes & integral structures people
have for saving invest in productivity of peoples in that nation including a focus on youth or communities
at risk of an underproductive life
2 Organisational systems
having a value multiplying purpose beyond extracting money. Built to Last research of 2nd
half of 20th C shows that the compound consequence of purpose includes 8 times more returns over a generation. Unseen Wealth
research (Brookings/Georgetown 2000) on compound expoential risk reaches far more dramatic recommendations on social
and human sustainability as systems of systems get networked.
3
Capital market systems are designed to focus on product, knowhow multiplication or services that leave a positive trace
on the future. So developing nations select capital market designs that do NOT:
A make money by speculating on scarcity
B leave a negative footprint on natural resources
C reward busy professional
cliques solely with transactions where the work expert people do is so transitory it has nothing future generations
can gain from ; society's system architects need relentlessly to make transparent what professions are
licensed to rule and to guard against social media's liability to spiral round noise, self-gratification or
endless trivia
dear jonathan yunus monica naila mostofa lesley sam ingrid estelle holly
I am meeting halima on Thursday who
seems to be MIT's most connected alumni in entrepreneurial networks and their 24 geographic hubs- their annual gala at embassy of france where I sampled the journal also celebrated 2 landmarks- a) france more startups than usa last year; b) entrepreneurs like steve case joining in
obama's attempt to catch up
any ideas on what to discuss - I have desparately wanted to help plant Social Business
Hubs between dc and boston to discuss other way round system connectors and such urgent apps as follow:
1
GREEN - neville williams as orign of solar; stellargroup who talked at latest mit function and say that solar can clean up
nuclear contaminated water; paul rose's friend cousteau (son of the founder of deep sea diving tv) and cnn correspondent
on green; guy at whitehouse whsoe job it is to extend green markets beyond the usual lobbying suspects connect to Green-Ashden
& Green Grameen
2 entrepreneurial models: expoentialy sustainable economics: my family is offended
by both top down and social models that over-spend on advocacy, attract image CSR partners and provide no transparent
multi-win maps of a sustainable business model to network partners into- DC is the worst of these 2 opposite kinds of
waste unlike any other city I have lived in
3 from the first few weeks that obama failed to go beyond wall
street normalcy he has needed demonstrations of empowering innovations before he could invest in american youth- we need
the dormant bank account to work in usa as well as across europe; we need sarkozy's g25 model to integrate bottom up into
all these regional trading blocks that have become the exact opposite of what dad originally supported EU for being http://www.erworld.tv/id95.html
4 most of all we need open source and way above zero sum infotech models that princeton used to be famous for
according to my dad's biography of von neumann and which berners lee at MIT still is; incidentally I hear cameron in
uk is hiring berners lee's advice : I would love to know on what
5 I dont want a dc hub separate from danone community
model nor separate from singforhope model nor separate from Unseen Wealth Compound risk experts re-ranking all business
schools until they offer the choice of sustainability mba
6 such hubs could also certify microcredit or other
models result sand those opinion leaders who started the microcreditsummit in 1997 like to see done the right way
round; they could also help students retrain professors where mindset issues need such
all of the above seem to
me to seamlessly linkin to world's largest youth and yunus investment fund cheered by people like Sarah and
Naila and Monica and doing some fast research to understand what the 50 most valuable people yunus has ever
met could bring to partberships- perhaps that could emerge both as a special issue of the journal and a correspondent search

Who's truly helping youth make 2010s most exciting decade?
STRUCTURES THAT HELP YOUTH WHOLLY NETWORK SUSTAINABILITY GOALS http://202020.tv
I keep on coming across the SWOT question regarding types of networks like aisec, net impact ...
historically
what is greatest strength and weakness
exponentially compounding
into the future and in partnering other networks investing in youth and community, what is the greatest opportunity
and threat of these
on the usa side (which may not be the same as eg aiesec if you are in s.africa)
I have questioned young people in all 3 of these networks and talked to the top people of two; they are not SocialBusiness
designed ) to help young people connect the 2010s most exciting decade through sustainable bottom up models
I
am rather hoping the network that may help transform these 20th c structures support of youth is elkington's www.volans.com ; is there a way jonathan that you can find out from elkington some of the most exciting but deeply micro projects volans
is nurturing; and can we get some of John's people in front of The Economist on Nov 16
COLLABORATION CAPITALS
one
of the yunus-gravitated advantages paris www.danonecommunities.com , glasgow and new york (www.singforhope.org once mobilises by monica will have) is their own hi-trust cenrtes/portals (ie meta-hubs) for connecfing 2010s in
most exciting ways; this is one reason why getting monthly aligned future action newslettters or something out of these
3 cities (and cross to worldwide youth entrepreneurs) needs urgently to show what colkabortion projects social busiess
can network round the world that aisec, net impact, ashoka cannot because ultimately the business model's connectivities
matters ; I am not interested in investing in any team or process that cannot show us its business model in an open
way
Two of the other most vital things Collaboration Capitals need are long-term place leaders - france
has martin hirsch (glasgow and new york dont yet have); ironically spain has the number 1 (ie queen sofia) and prize
processes (ironically boston has this but none of the rest)
sam/lisa - do you know whether anyone has written
a short biography on all of the ways queen sofia has started up subnetworks of human progress across hemispheres; if there
isn't one, can we find spanish researcher who wants to write one in time for celebrating november 2011?; there is no
way (that I can believe in) to land yunus olympic celebrations in London on 2012 unless European peoples and
worldwide youth urgently start annual content-action celebrations of the royals who sustained commonweatlhs

CP2 what should the world and yunus want from foundations beyind aid
Hilary Clinton offered a very illuminating speec on desire to take USAID beyond aid except in emergenecy. Her speech made
at start of 2010 is copied to www.developmentpartners.tv
three are various disadvantrages with conventional global aid
much of it may fail to trickle dwon
aid tends to be subject to spiralling risks
being given something isnt the same as being empowered to action
learn a deep communal process
aid models require conatant refunding whereas SB models keep on reinvesting
however perhaps this issue's impact is been seen by example; look at any cp12 gameboard with a beyond aid entry and
see how deeply micro up projects plant context and accrue trust and ;ike nature emerge interfaces with other projects whose
local connections can be seen by people who constantly grounded in the community
CP1 what does dr yunus want from collaboration partners in micro social business?
CP1 users of social businessmodel – don’t change the rules that compound 10 times more economicalpro-poor community
models
positive cashflow reinvested in purpose; owners = those in greatest need & investing
in next gen 16D
no dividends
zero conflicts with sustainability of all connected by system’s
productivities and demands
repayment of social business loan with no interest
don’t rush development
of a social business concept – to breakthrough you will not only have to innovate a service but remove
a conflict which has been compounding the sustainability crisis
(1a why would people want to be connected
with a free loan : improvement on charity donation; reputation or learning gain associated with solving a life critical need;
knock on development impacts in a community of importance to lender)
CP12 -What do frineds of yuNus want from netgen 2010 most exciting decade
·the belief and the social business model knowledge and the
smart collab capabilities with media to make 2010s most exciting decade
·optimism that impossible no longer exists wherever microE youth or sustainability capitals connect

micro up yunus joins select new UN team in anti-poverty race to 2015
UN chief Ban Ki-moon named a high-profile committee Wednesday
aimed at sparking progress against poverty and toward improved welfare under the organization'sMillenniumDevelopmentGoals.
The group will be led by co-chairs President Paul Kagame of Rwanda and Prime Minister Jose Luis
Rodriguez Zapatero of Spain .
Others in the groupinclude Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus of Bangladesh, former
Chilean president Michelle Bachelet, Microsoft founderBill Gates, CNN founder Ted Turner and Jeffrey Sachs of The Earth Institute
and a professor at Columbia University.
Ban said "distinguished" personalities from China, India, Japan and Britain will also
join the panel.
"As
you can see, (this is) a real collection ofsuperheroes
in defeating poverty,"
the UN secretary general said.
The group
will push for progress in the Millennium goals stemming from a 2000 summit, whichcall for reducing extreme poverty by half by 2015.
The MDG Advocacy Group will bring together"some of the world's leading thinkers and doers,"Ban added as the UN prepared for a new summit in September.
"We need to emerge from the September Millennium Development Goals Summit with concrete national
action plans for realizing the goals," he said.
"These advocates can help get us there. They will help generate political
will and mobilize a global grassroots movement to meet the MDGs."
The UN set a 15-year timeframe at the turn of the millennium to achieve itsgoals of halving extreme poverty,boosting health and education
and further empowering women across the developing world.
Ban's announcement was made as the UN released a report showing choppy and
uneven progress in reducing poverty.
According to the report, the proportion ofpeople living on less than 1.25 dollars a dayin developing nations has dropped from 46 percent in 1990 to 27 percent in 2005,
largely due to improvements in China and other nations in Asia .
The figure is expected to drop to 15 percent by the target year of 2015.
The report also cites big gains in getting children
into primary schools in many poor countries, especially in Africa . It also cites "strong interventions in addressingAIDS,malariaandchild health" and "a good chance to reach the target
for access toclean drinking water."
But the report also found that only half of the developing world's population has access to improved
sanitation, such as toilets or latrines and that girls in the poorest quintile of households are 3.5 times more likely to
be out of school than those from the richest households, and four times more likely than boys from this background.
Less than halfof the women in some developing
regions have access tomaternal careby skilled medical personnel when giving birth, the report said.
Overall,
the UN said theworld economic crisis"took a heavy toll on
jobs and incomes around the world,"but does not threaten achievement
of the Millennium Development Goals.
Today, Dr Yunus and 15 other change leaders are celebratiing with President Obama. And Dr Yunus is using this as an opportunity
to accelerate his dream to form a club of 100 global brand ceos who benchmark what micro and collaboration and micro can do.
I am wondering if you might know a subpanel of brand leaders who want to change the corporate social responsibility paradigm
from penalising those who take the greatest responsibiliy for their sector to rewarding them. It has been my maths contention
for many years now that false valuations of sustainability investments are caused by a failure to value
reputation and goodwill systemically as exponential spirals. By getting enough CEOs to understand Dr Yunus sustainability
investment maps at the same time, yes we can renew community sustainability as well as get back to the entrepreneurial
system dynamics needed for extreme innovation partnerships. Particularly those Dr Yunus is a wizard at celebrating involving connections
of the world's most resourced organisations with those grassroots networks serving the most life critical needs.
Back from Bangladesh co-hosting youth and journalists connecting at 69th Dr Yunus birthday
dialogue with Grameen and BRAC blogged for example by the BBC,
-it seems that Bangaldesh has solutions ready for replication that Jeff Skoll wants to promote hope, "collective power and the need for urgency" around, as your web video shows
I have noted from 25 years of work on global media how absurd american
advocacy and image-making models divide people who should be working together on sustainability - does Jeff know that
Grameen installs more solar units than the whole of USA, and its championing of microgreenfinance has now attracted at least
3 royal supporters across Europe?
http://yunusforum.net now has various collaboration projects approved by dr yunus - starting with youth ambassador 5000 network linking undergraduates
09/10, where mentors can help advise micro-up youth to challenge those who are truly interested in community
sustainability to collaborate much more.
I enclose two one-pagers which illustrate nature of the first action
projects we aim to interconnect after our week long dialogues in dhaka. If there is any way we might
also connect with your work at any future time, please do tell me . In particular I am always seeking to map
back the biggest Yes We Can (actually the sliogan yunus used to launch microcreditsummit in 1997) stages such as
those Bangla friends are inviting peoples world to collaborate around which currently include
nov 09 linking
micro up with Berlin celebrations of the 20th anniversary of the fall of the wall

I got the peculiar message footnoted from the facebook persona of Muhammad Yunus -can you test out how facebook
works - does it let you see anything if you try the link
by coincidence, I had just been writing up a latest version of 7 principles
which are my understanding of the connections between:
A) marriah's 1000 quarterly to 10000 annual yes we can humanity
meetings in boston
B) what Dr Yunus' start of the microyouth summit dialogue in dhaka in june09 can be
about
c) what threads emotional and social intelligence through Vivian's blockbuster film of the one man
and the 7 million poorest women who changed the world
there is a problem with wording in that the last 30 years
of the MBA has decimated what every phrase starting from 18th terminology of free market and entrepreneur used to mean
- so it would be interesting to hear how anyone would re-edit any of these 7 clauses
1 Youth will need to (micro)entrepreneur the majority
of new jobs
2 Job creation
is simplest where communities and families enjoy healthy basic knowledge (user friendly Q&A) circulation
flows around schools, healthcare and banking
3 Counter-intuitively the most valuable assistance we can offer first to localities that missed
out on industrial infrastructure (or its maintenance) is green and ending digital divides and transparent local governance and safety (eg the 10000 telecentre model that Grameen-Intel
have been feasibility testing)

media and community-owned” models for the sustainable future of lifestyles in rural and semi-urban areas. Every educator
(and classof 2000,1999, 1998,... ie 3rd grade up) must-needs have open source interaction with these bodies of universally
diverse learning and doing
9 year old asks 1000 New Yorkers in Jan 2008 - which sorts of banking will last a very long time
5 Included in this emerging range of smart media models is
microsummits – a collaboration process that unites virtual networking, real worldwide and local meetings around heroic
collaborative goals whose future deadlines map back to pivotal do next metrics gearing up to exponentials of sustainability
investment
6 Banking for all humans
already has 13 years of microsummiting experience. 7 wondrous microsummits need YES WE CAN interconnecting round social action
projects – banking; health; education; green including water food, energy; “smart
media”; local government and safety; microprofessions transparency of (their Hippocratic oaths to compound no harm)
7 Quarter of a century of short-term globalisation
spin and the behavioural conditioning of Big Banking's MBA-worldview dismally decimated more than half of the assumptions
of free markets as adam smith morally mapped them – namely those that systematically revolve round multiplying goodwill through innovating collaboration (see
attached specification that Dr Yunus team are editing into a booklet aimed at liberating curiosity to start
up this genre). Fortunately a third of century of experience of innovating collaboration from those with the least
resources in the world is accessible through Q&A of micro-entrepreneurship. Furthermore,
if we deeply audit collaboration’s goodwill multipliers with as much cyclical attention as historic accounting paid
to boxing in competitive transactions every quarter, then yes we can turn the 21st century into
one where we celebrate the productivity capacity of every child and being. In other words, declaring this generation's
freedom of interdependence around the collaborative space race of ending poverty can also entrepreneurially put
an end to every compound inconvenient truth including wars, destabilising nature and over a third of the world being populated
in environments which destroy the 2 goals of social empowerment defined by Bill Clinton as:
·ensuring that no human dies before their time
empowering
every child, woman and human with optimal opportunity to make a difference through life. (the source of all produtive
economics in a post-industrial age)

London & Transatlantic Leaders
Quest to Dhaka, June 2009
This year instead of an RAC Lunch in Saint James, we plan a day trip to Grameen HQ in the Mirpur Slum in Dhaka to dialogue with Dr Yunus. When with Mostofa kindness I first
met Dr Yunus in the new year week of 2008, I gave him my father's 1984 book on the future of yes we can learning networks so it is most likely our dialogue will be anchored around what 19-25 year olds
can be helped by elders to change exponentially rising.
Although if you will resource a social business project
you will openly publish with those who go to the dialogue and what collaboration approval to take to the next stage, I am
sure there's time to review that the more audacious its micro up replication is. As Sir Tom Hunter said in Glasgow last
November- the least we can do Dr Yunus after you have come all this way is to plant some interactions that make you happy.
You can bank on Glasgow being a capital city that will be joyous to produce just that. (Historians
may know that Glasgow has 308 years of practicising anti-empire economics- dad and I always read the late 1700s Scottish literature
on free markets and entrpreneurs with that micro lens first, as indeed were all readers of The Economist intended to do by
its 1843 Scottish founder).
The day before yesterday I was at a world bank meeting listening to how Kenya's
Jamii Bora was now the most exciting bank to visit and a guy from USAID muttered smething about replication being the number 1 buzzword
in transitioning America's economy and leadership. We invite you to join us in publishing a new genre "innovating
collaboration" -the quest for replication beyond excellence.
For example ending malaria deaths would
be cool to design a community replication franchise around- or even just recall how florida once did that. Notably so
as its Obama's most specific 2015 pledge to see what networked people can do - and health partnerships are the type that Dr Yunus most knows Bangladesh cannot invent on its own.
Banking Bangladesh can invent and share www. Social
Buiness and Sustainability investment in communities Bangladesh can invent and share www. Learning internet http://bankabillion.org we can Invent. Solar energy we can invent. As you can see at http://yunus10000.com and help distribute through free dvds intended for 10000 youth particularly to Q&A round.
NETWORKING
TRANSPARENCY
If you are in UK you are lucky, you can just talk to mostofa and see if you have something relevant
to bring to dhaka around June 23. If you are in USA and want to talk, you are unlucky in that I guess I am the one most trying
to collate how ideas for action map together. All we are trying to do is help those either with the greatest
resources to partner dhaka or the most lifetime exponentials to network YES while sustainability still can be learnt and done.

Hi
Chris:
Muhamamd Yunus will be at his dhaka office for the last 10 days of June. So we can take a day of
the last week of June for the dialogue. I will keep in touch with lamiya to fix up the date. Which day of the last
week do you prefer?
The Meeting that Changes Everything Youth in US University Clubs Need to Have Joy & Freedom to Question
I will ask try to ask Dr Yunus for 15 minutes of his time to explain that we think we can reach 10 + East Coast University
Clubs linking Boston, NY, Pensylania , Washington DC. From yesterday this seems to be the game afoot. Ideally
9.00pm NYU Stern Jan 27 -the last time I was at Stern their chief accounting professor was rallying the Big 5 accountants
on how to pretend Enron didnt happen on their watch so its really amusing space to celebrate the Truth of Micro/Community
Accounting.A Tale of 2 Baruch's
Yesterday's Meeting on Democracy's Last Stand is Youth
It was convened
in the national press club of washington DC by some of the people (including Demos's squandering capitalism's
networks and ralph nader's support consumers and community networks, and shorebank's microbanking networks in that
part of Chicago that Obama's experience develped) who earliest warned consumers of how subprime would destroy every
community's will to action yes we can. They dont have the answers but they do know the records of who' who in politics
and pressure group networks. They also have the most realisatic scenarios of where banking will get worse and worse unless
people use the internet to know whose speculative superpower intend to cook what next.
3
areas to ask young peoples clubs to constitute themselves round
A the questions that need youth
need to see diversely debated across the land
B the most audacious green and other goals that
micro-networks need to form round if jobs are to be created and youth is to regenerate USA and worldwide
C the
elders networks we can trust for missing information on how community actions sustain what futures can exponentially be designed
123
Collaboration IQ Waves: A comes before connecting Actions. B comes before designing and replicating
social business. C comes before Futurising system of capitalism that weaves the world.
Suggestion-
The Life in The Day of Methodology
In terms of communication maps, my brand seeding practitioner circles have once succeeded in facilitating change of a wholly dismal situation (a
very dirty situation in which Big Pharma had caused a constitueny of youth to get HIV) in which youth were losing all
hope . The core dynamic is to connect younger and older youth groups to interact in if only I knew what people 3
years older than me knew before I had to make a choice- so although what we (mainly kevin, rachel, alexis) can access right
now is university micro clubs eg 18-23 year olds, we also need to start mapping how 13-18 year olds can dicsuss
things with 18-23 year volds and how 18-23 year olds can discuss things with 23-28 year olds. If we do that below the radar
we can help obama and green jobs acropss america and millennium goal world.
The one bit of good news is that
90% of everything that corporate branding can achieve cultures in NW revolves round13-28 year olds- so if a micro
movement can becme more tristeed in answering the questions on 13-28 year olds the whole media game gets chnaged once and
for all and corporations have to change their marketing , theor vreality of leadership. This is something that The Sir Tom
Hunter type of entrepreneur can help experiment with in Glasgow and provide some lead cases that American youth may need to
rebuild community. If you can find an equuivalent entrepreneur anywhere the social cases they help youth action forst can
be core action learning content which is we need to web.
My father (dictated
to me) and Dr Yunus and others are writing a small booklet on how system change networks can beam up social
interactions by innovating collaboration around the gravity of Dr Yunus's lifetime and Bangladesh's generational
experience . History's practices can urgently look forward to US contexts of 2009's
economics revolution spinning around alumni of Obama.
As a version 0 publication, this can keep improving -and invite guest contributions to a 360
degrees debate - with re-editing, but it feels time for version 0 to come out -to be a space so
that the micro view of economics can wave optimism through schooling and whatever global leadership happens next.
I would rather some other sponsor took over version 1 onwards as version 0 's budget is a shoestring. Something far better
and interactive is merited for presenting Dr Yunus's (and Oroental) common sense curiosity on community
banking and community everything that most impacts life's exponential opportunities to do and learn from cradle up.
Perhaps Sir Tom Hunter would take this over as Scottish and Bangladeshi economists were motivated in origin
by exploring a world in which their nation had less than nothing.
Scotland was bankrupted in 1700 by an international
ponti scheme of that time, and no teacher green red white or blue can know how to read Adam Smith's
or James Wilson's open system maps of micro economics and human change without understanding that context - in
my impudent opinion. Thin is of particular human import if world or other banks' goals are to to be
audacious as they ask where are the epicentres to the free market of ending poverty -assuming we choose to be illuminated too by such diverse whole
truth perspectives as connected inter alia by Gandhi, Einstein, Churchill, Von Neumann. If economics is keep on being
macro-monopolised so that non-economist brains are excluded from socially questioning it, then it is mathematically
clear that George Orwell's Big Brother script is exponentially where the overarching system design of globalisation
and media will spiral.
27 January, 9.01 to 9.15PM New York
If the project seems to
be going well, I will ask Dr Yunus for a 15 minute audience immediately after the NYU event below. In the event that he says
yes, Alexis, Rachel, Kevin would you be able to come? I know this is an odd-sounding invitation but
my hopefully non-wasteful way of getting into Dr Yunus diary (number 1 human being of this decade) is to ask for a bit
of marginal time at a place he already is. I think its timely he met you 3 as New York micro-revolutionary networkers for
want of a better name of all those who unite valuation and auditing round children as the most productive sustainability
investment of them all.

Revolutionary Framework of Branding, Valuation and Mapping the Systemic Transformation of Economics Above
Zero-Sum
What ERworld does.
Collaborates Entrepreneurially to regenerate
freedom of markets and hi-trust human enterprise by providing transparency maps of global market sectors ensuring that they compound Truth’s Consequences
(what humanity most needs progress to sustainability) not inconvenient truths (communications whose systems spin vicious conflicts
and lost sustainability over time – eg externalisation by a global market sector of its greatest risk in a compound
way that destroys the sustainability of some or all local societies.
Where
to Find it?
Three trilogies
of books written since 1976 and co-practised with readers and increasing interactive webs. The first trilogy–
Future History 1800-2025 of Entrepreneurial Revolution 1976-1984- was published by The Economist as surveys and books. The
second trilogy 1984 to 1996 concerned the ER of Branding and revolutions in media including coming mediation of local societies
into globalisation.The third trilogy 1996- To date focuses on the ER valuation of goodwill and mapping
sustainability as exponentially rising or destructing consequences of human relationship systems applied to the transparency
of global market sectors. Each trilogy shared one book with the next.

Microfinance Focus, November 4, 2011: Professor Muhammad Yunus was invited to deliver
a key note speech during the G20 Young Entrepreneurs Summit held in Nice, France. Professor Yunus addressed an audience of
more than 400 entrepreneurs from all G20 countries. In his speech, he shared his personal entrepreneurship experiences, his
faith in young entrepreneurs to be the pillars of society and the need to include poor countries in the discussion process
in making global decisions.
Professor Yunus being an entrepreneur himself started off creating the Grameen Bank that
provides microfinance services to the poor who had little access to financial provisions. From that, he ventured into a wide
number of social businesses such as Grameen Nursing College, Grameen Eyecare Hospitals, Grameen Shakti, etc.
He has
always considered young entrepreneurs to be the most effective solution for the future. He said “In my opinion, G20
YES is a fabulous initiative, gathering so much energy and momentum from all over the world. Because of their creativity and
leadership, provided that they commit to share the value they create, these 400 young entrepreneurs in this room can change
the world.”
Professor Yunus is also a member of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) Advocacy Group, advising
the Secretary General of the United Nations. Hence, he believes that the next generation of youths should be handed over the
process of the MDGs as soon as possible. He believes that entrepreneurs will have a key role to play in fulfilling the MDGs,
if they are committed to the social value created by their companies, and social business can be part of the solutions.
In
his speech, he added that the G20 needed to broaden its scope to deal with the current world crisis. It can no longer remain
a political forum with economic agendas. The G20 needs to create a social agenda as well. Professor Yunus proposes that ‘social
business’ should be brought to the agenda of G20, as one of the concrete and effective solutions to be considered for
immediate implementation so as to guide capitalistic investment towards social value and jobs creation, rather than sheer
profit maximization strategies. A social business is a cause-driven business where profits stay within the company for its
sustainability.
Lastly, Professor Yunus concluded that the G20 should be expanded into the G25, where poor countries
from each continent should be included in the global agenda which they are part of. He added that “Their problems are
inter-related with others, and their proposals of solutions should be considered by the most economically advanced countries
in making global decisions. A G25 would be a big step toward ensuring that global social issues are raised, and MDGs implementation
is fully shared on the global agenda. And finally, because fighting poverty together is the only way to bring long lasting
peace in this world.”

Mapping is a process of discovery. Crucially maps are only as usable as updating correctness of bottom
up information. Think of your own use of a map. You look for the "you are here arrow". You want to be directed to
somewhere/someone you dont know how to get to; you want your return vist to be safe as well as a value multiplying win-win.
Does anyone remember the simplest findings of einstein and jon von neumann. Einstein proved
that to innovate more value you need to go more micro in what you model; von neumann showed that there is more value to be
networked by interfacing safe flows across systems instead of ruling over separation of boundaries. There isnt a single
global metrics profession that gets these mathematical -and natural - principles right. Unless we change this global
markets will cycle through ever greater collapse and more and more communities will lose sustainability. Mapmaking is that
critical an idea to what the net genration will achieve in 2010s; but its also one that children from primary age up can action
learn. Its simple. Its just that it works the other way round from top-down people's fatal conceit.
It explores how to make the invisible principles and practices of real wealth creation
visible, and therefore useable. Our planet needs case studies underline the search for new win-wins that build ‘system
integrity’ Trust-flow is the unseen wealth to invest sustainability in. Tranpsarently mapped it develops
a goodwill gravity tyhat invites with roleplayer in a community to multiply goodwill while sustaining their own cashflow..
Trust is not some vague, mushy, abstract warm-hearted sentiment. It is an economic powerhouse – probably just as economically
and socially important as oil. The point is, there are specific things you need to do to get trust flowing, just as
there are specific things you need to do to get oil flowing. And like oil trust has a dark side. Right now, the world is awash
with the carbon emissions which threaten the stability and sustainability of its ecosystems. Right now, the world is also
awash with the ‘carbon emission’ of trust – mistrust. Indeed it may well be that our ability to tackle the
one issue – the threat of environmental catastrophe – depends on our ability to tackle the other issue: how to
generate, deepen, extend and sustain trust.>br>But what is the best way of doing this? One thing is for sure. You don’t
build and sustain trust via some sentimental exercise of goodwill to all and sundry. There are three very simple principles
at the heart of effective trust generation. First, trust is generated via win-win relationships. It’s virtually
impossible to generate or sustain trust without mutual benefit for those involved. But beneficial outcomes are not enough
in themselves. For trust to be built and sustained, both sides need to signal a demonstrable commitment to finding win-win
ways forward. Such a commitment may require real changes to what we say and do. Second, real ‘win-wins’
are hardly ever purely financial or material. You don’t build trust simply by walking away with more cash in your pocket.
Trust works at all the dimensions and levels of human exchange. Yes, it’s about financial and material rewards. But
it’s also about purpose (what people want to achieve). It’s about politics with a small ‘p’: the use
and abuse of power, the crafting and application of rules of fair play. And it’s about emotions: the sometimes overwhelmingly
strong emotions, both positive and negative, that are generated when people deal with other peopleWhat’s constitutes
a ‘win’ – a sense of real improvement – is therefore highly specific. It depends absolutely on the
details of who the parties are, what they are trying to achieve, in what context. Building trus, therefore involves discovering
these specifics. Just as oil doesn’t flow out of the ground, get refined and pump its way into motor vehicles automatically
and without effort, so identifying and doing what is necessary to get trust flowing requires dedicated, skilled effort. It
requires a disciplined, structured process, not a vague sentiment.
3) Third, even if we do steps 1) and 2) there’s
still a good chance it won’t succeed. Why? Because it ignores an invisible third factor. In the real world, purely two
way bilateral relationships don’t exist. There is always a third party whose interests or outcomes are affected by what
the other two parties do but who is not a party to the contract. The environment is a case in point. Producers and consumers
may both benefit from buying and selling to each other – but what happens if, in doing so, they destroy the environment
they both depend on?
This raises a hugely important question. When two parties pursue win-wins and build mutual
trust, are they doing so in a way which creates a win and builds trust for the third party at the same time? Or are they simply
pushing the problems – and the mistrust – further down the line on to this third party? Building vigorous, healthy
networks of trust is a different kettle of fish to ‘you scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours’
win-win conspiracies. It requires a Map of all the key relationships plus careful consideration of knock-on consequences.
It requires a different perspective.
These three simple, basic steps do not happen automatically. They need to
be worked at. The territory needs to be deliberately Mapped and explored. What’s more, there are obstacles in our way
– mental and practical obstacles that need to be cleared. Prevailing economic theories about ‘rational economic
man’ for example, deny the need to commit to win-win outcomes. Instead, they promote supposedly ‘rational’
(i.e. narrowly selfish behaviours) which actively undermine trust The same theories insist that the only valid measure of
human benefit is money, thereby excluding from consideration many of the biggest opportunities for improvement. Meanwhile
many vested interests do not want to extend the circle of trust to third parties and complete networks because their positions
of power depend on their ability to take advantage of the weaknesses of these third parties. That’s another job for
Mapping: helping to identify and mount such obstacles. The potential benefits of doing so are unthinkably huge. They
start with a simple negative: the relief that comes from when you stop banging your head against a brick wall. Mistrust breeds
wasteful, wealth destroying conflict that tends to feed on itself. Anger and hatred engender anger and hatred. Simply easing
or stopping the terrible waste of mistrust would transform prospects for many millions of people. We desperately need to find
ways of doing this. Then there are the positive benefits. Understanding the real nature of human wealth – all those
dimensions of purpose, ‘politics’ and emotion as well as money and material comfort – means we can start
being human again; human in the way we think, and act. What’s more, many of these intangible benefits won’t cost
a penny. They’re there for the taking, if only we puts our minds to it. But there’s more, because trust is
also an economic superpower in its own right. In the pages that follow we will show conclusively that material and financial
riches are also dependent on trust. In fact, we will argue the case for going one step further. We will say that material
and financial riches are a by-product of trust: the visible fruits of invisible, intangible human exchange. Once you understand
that sustainable cash flows are a by-product of sustainable trust flows, your understanding of what makes a successful business
is transformed. Separately, each of these three fruits – reducing the waste of conflict, unleashing the potential
intrinsic benefits of human exchange, and energising the sustainable creation of material wealth – are massive in their
own right. Put them together and they represent a vast new continent of opportunity. As we said, this book is addressed
to entrepreneurs and system innovation revolutionaries. Wherever you happen to be, whatever the change you want to make
is, the principles explored in this book apply. The wish to change and the will to change are not the same as being able to
change successfully. For that you need to understand your territory. You will need new Maps
