We're fortunate to have entered into a close partnership in Haiti with Mohammed Yunus' organization that's promoting social business, Grameen Creative Lab.

I look forward to spending some time with him in 3-weeks when he's here in Haiti. To learn more about our partnership with them and how one of their business consultants is focusing full-time efforts during the next year to help our partner schools create successful social businesses and integrate entrepreneurship into their curriculum click here: http://www.haitipartners.org/2011/09/philippe-lagrenade-joins-gclh-and-hp/

Warm regards from sunny Mariaman, Haiti,

John
PS On a different note, we just had ground breaking ceremony for Children's Academy where open space practice will be central in all we do. Children's Academy will also have a social business. Here's video and photos:

Mohammed Yunus (founder of the Gramin Bank, one of the first large scale micro credit operations) has written a practical account of how he is putting Social Business into operation called, unsurprisingly, Social Business. It's an inspiring read.

Well, as a conceptual model, I'd say it might be accurate, as far as we know, but it is a conceptual model trying to describe a very dynamic and fluid universe!  There is the whole question of incommensurability.  :-)

Hi,
 
I have found the 3 page blog post from this link very interesting.
 
I think it contains a lot of similarities with ideas in good currency among OST practitioners in this list.
 
With care, from a sunny Saturday morning in Lisbon
 
Artur
