Purpose, Poverty, Pitfalls, and Redemption

    I was just at a Fetzer Institute retreat on Wisdom Perspectives on Business in Community to help Fetzer explore how they could be a catalyst for bringing increasing wisdom, love and forgiveness to the business sector.

     

    While there I had the privilege of meeting and spending time with Sam Daley-Harris. Sam is founder of RESULTS, a citizen lobby on ending global poverty, and founder of the Microcredit Summit Campaign.  In May 2010 he gave a talk on micrcredit bank leadership at TEDx NJ Libraries titled: "Purpose, Poverty, Pitfalls, and Redemption".  

    Please listen to Sam's remarks and pass it on to friends if you enjoyed it as much as I did.   It is a great example of MSR for world transformation. I'm wondering if anyone is doing work on in this area that they could share with our network. Here's the link:
