While the grameen brand was built out of Bangaldesh villages networks by muhammad yunus and pooerst vilage mothers from 1976, it largest owner is now Grameen phone, the ownership of grameen bank appears to have been re-regulated in 2010 by politicians and lawyers,  most other Grameen brands were either founded directly by Yunus before 2005  or since the meeting in 2005 with Danone, HEC , Veolia, and Credit Agricole as global social business partnerships. Spome publicist platforms and funds have since 2010 used the Yunus name often with the sub-brand creative lab In some cases national brands of Grameen were founded with national agents - eg GrameenHealth and GrameenAmerica (bank) with Vidar Jorgennsen in USA. Around 1990, Yunus was asked by international friends to form Grameen Trust as a consultancy for foreign processes of microcredit staffed by Bangaldeshi consultants chosen by Yunus. Also the anerican journalist Alex Counts was given the opportunity to start Grameen Foundation for foriegn fundraising for microcredit around the time that microcreditsummit was launched in 1997. It is our understanding that Yunus no longer directly makes leadership decisions regarding Grameen Foundation Please help us with 2 listings Global Grameen Partners operating out of Bangladesh..

Over 40 years of societal research, the simplicity of grounded theory makes it my favorite learning game. Its open dynamic is not just iterative but recursive - the quality proven to empower human mind as always more sustainably innovative than computers (Turing)  You start with a transcript of a conversation or lecture. The student is empowered to highlight two or three texts that she is most curious about -eg
  The teacher and student then Q&A around the highlighted texts
SO:
In my attempt to explore week 3 videos: I would like to inquire what concept of service process the teacher has? Back in 1982 my father (Norman Macrae's end poverty)  friends at The Economist noticed that the industrial age was no longer the main value driver of the bigger economies- human service was.
SO
 If millennials were to be sustainable ten we would need a gamechanger in auditing leadership from manufacturing things to service (alive and human) to knowledge multiplying value (were boundary collaboration /open design takes even economics above the constraints of zero sum thinking - first western thinker to trust on this in modern age orbit is Von Neumann)

So they surveyed intrapreneurship as a bottom-up way of designing service franchises. hoping it would become a curriculum from grade 5 up before elearning reached the tipping point of open learning campus

For a current example if a national airline was truly intrapreneurial its crew processes would be designed around what crews said they needed to be mutually socially emotionally intelligent day after day after day- not at all the same thing as an airline designed around maximising profit quarter after quarter after quarter.

GT week 3 Question 2 after discussion with http://www.unwomens.com
==============================================================
1.0 20th C Theory of development - a process run between governments
2.1 Mobilised since 1996 Bangladesh among partners of womens empowerment ( initially Soros fund, Yunus women villagers networks, MIT open tech wizardry, norway's telenor infrastructure)

So i would also ask : are we free in this course to discuss the bottom-up mindset which considers how different 2.1 public service delivery in villager engagement is from the top-down processing of 1.1 citizen engagement in public service. 

For gamechanging bottom-up and open system designs read anything on nature's evolutionary code or   from jim kim or paul farmer or pope francis or the south american schools of Preferential Option Poor or Pedagogy of Oppressed or now being celebrated by 7th grade south african girls with ipad connections to the mandela extranet partners . 

Example POP: 1-2-3 Value recursion grounded (started 34 years ago tanks to Paul Farrners Twinning of Boston and Haiti and community grounded Catholic vision across continent of americas (updated next week in panama ))   if you start from service living wit the poorest, then not only 1) empowering them with service knowledge (eg up to 90% of staff at www.pih.org are former patients just as kenya's slum microcredit was founded around over 90% of staff being former youth clients), but 2) how to get out of any poverty traps and 3) celebrating with the millennials world how every advance in new technology can mobilse new value co-creation with the poorest. (Ultimately if economics saw its role as optimalising 7 billion human livelihoods the sustainability impacts would be huge.. )

1 is the yunus family brand , youth's most valuable brand to network with?

2 how is valuation of most job creating brands measured? 

- my family have worked 30 years on the latter and therefore know who knows how to do IT and perhaps more importantly who hasnt got the foggiest idea

while open education world is free for leading, it is quite easy to gravitate around singfrorhope and women4empowerment to make the connections in best order for youth if we map how to do that now- however as soon as one (mad avenue or wall street) heavily conflicted choice is made it becomes so much work that nobody I know can afford to do that probono

About us 1972 was one of the most exciting years on the planet. In Bangladesh ( barely 1 -year old as a new nation) Job-creating village networks started to emerge around the poorest mothers on the planet - thanks to the most purpose-led systems I have ever encountered: BRAC and then Grameen. DR Yunus became the face of worldwide job creation by and for the poorest mothers. and their next generations. In the same year, my father Norman Macrae who, after spending his last days as a teenager navigating RAF airplanes in ww2 over Bangladesh,a nd who  had been mentored by Keynes that the main job of economist is to end poverty through developing livelihoods - first saw students testing digital earning networks.

Dad spent rest of his life debating how and why smart networking media could be the most collaborative innovation our human race ever connects around the planet- he started the curriculum of entrepreneurial revolution in The Economist. My fathers' last public celebration (birthday 85 occurred in 2008- the guest he was overjoyed to celebrate at the Royal Automobile Club in Saint James was Dr Muhammad Yunus. Anyway we love all job creating networks and brands- who do your ne(x)t generation vote for as number 1 collaboration brand of job creation. One of father's impudent mediation stories made the yunus party even more fun- back in the day he had helped elect the RAC's first female member (at the time london's most empowering womens journalist without the members fully knowing who'd they'd elected)
