These loans are given to entrepreneurs too poor to qualify for traditional bank loans.In this episode we discuss: Professor Yunus’ purpose that includes focus on reforming the education system so that young people can discover their purpose as well as get the knowledge to reach their full potential whilst creating positive change in the world. Professor Yunus’ designed his purpose by simply wanting to be useful to another person. When he found he was useful to one person, he realised his solution was relevant to more than one person and started helping more than one person and expanding to solve global problems. That no problem is a local problem, everything is a global problem. Professor Yunus' leadership style focuses on stubbornness to ensure you can work with those who can't yet see the value in your solutions to be successful in creating change. The importance of belief and faith in your cause, so that all ‘impossibles’ could be ‘possibles’. How Professor Yunus’ new book 'The World of Three Zeroes' shares the story of his life to help lead you in creating, leading  and operating a profitable social business. How only a handful of people control the world's wealth and how this situation worsens with a focus on self interest. How to view the world through bifocal glasses with dollar signs in one lens to look after ourselves, but then also a humanitarian lens to look after others through creating social business that solve global problems. Finally, we discuss the importance of knowing and using your incredible power.Links mentioned in the show: A World of Three Zeros: The New Economics of Zero Poverty, Zero Unemployment, and Zero Net Carbon Emissions On Purpose book - http://karentjames.com/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/onpurposehub Twitter - https://twitter.com/KarenTJames Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/onpurposehub/ Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4_3QTpU3nQuVpfi503GBIw

Is self-interest the only force motivating business? Or can altruism be an equally powerful driver? It's a question that Muhammad Yunus, the Nobel Prize–winning father of microcredit, answers in his latest book, A World of Three Zeros: The New Economics of Zero Poverty, Zero Unemployment, and Zero Net Carbon Emissions. He spoke with fellow economist Jeffrey Sachs.

Muhammed Yunus discusses micro-lending, social business and his new book, A World of Three Zeros: The New Economics of Zero Poverty, Zero Unemployment, and Zero Net Carbon Emissions.

It is estimated that eight of the world's richest men control as much wealth as the poorest half of the population, according to a recent Oxfam report. This concentration of wealth has widened the gap between rich and poor, and women often suffer the most acute effects of poverty. Tackling this inequality requires a new economic vision, according to Nobel Peace Prize laureate Muhammad Yunus. Yunus' microfinance model has empowered over 150 million people worldwide, reducing poverty, unemployment, and incentivizing entrepreneurship among low-income individuals in Bangladesh--with 97% of loans offered to women. Join the Council on Global Affairs, Muhammad Yunus, and Susan Davis for a discussion on how we can tackle worldwide poverty in a way that creates jobs, empowers youth, utilizes technology and is sustainable for our planet. Muhammad Yunus' latest book is A World of Three Zeros: The New Economics of Zero Poverty, Zero Unemployment and Zero Carbon Emissions will be available for sale and signing from The Book Cellar.
