May I offer you a quick tour around questions this picture represents for me and those networkers I feel most concern for and affinity with. If you see a route that is vital to a collaboration you (or a community/network near you) are working on- please feel free to email me at wcbn007@easynet.co.uk so that we can work out what the first connections we need to make are. You might want to quickly browse this storyline which my father Norman Macrae at The Economist and I used to start out death of distance network future maps 22 years ago. We've debated it a few thousand times now at all sorts of roundtables and networking open spaces.

QUICK TOUR Ashoka Social Entrepreneurs (SE) Net coordinated here by Bill Drayton since 1978 across 40+ countries: funders include the Skoll SE World Championship The changemakers.net webs here- nb "Health for All" is the current life-blossoming project theme (project30000's editor's review for this blog) A leading funder of Ashoka's Changemakers and microfinance is Omidyar Ahmedabad is preparing for centenary network event Oct 2007 at Gandhi's Ashram Among educational revolutionaries, no interaction known to me (tell me at wcbn007@easynet.co.uk if you know otherwise) has had greater imnpact than Gandhi * Montessori, and Lucknow provides an extraordinary worldwide citizen testimony to this fusion. University of Stars asks whether you know any superstars standing up for modern educational experiments in truth other than Tiger Woods The need to get UK's BBC and India's DD to collaborate in defining what world service public sector broadcasters can link with internet partners is the most vital media project I can ever imagine -please mail me at wcbn007@easynet.co.uk if you have any connections that can make this or project30000 accelerate The story of GRN at IGNCA unrolls in the sidebar (right)

Using the 200 year knowledge of entrepreneurial revolutionary cases that the Scots 1 2 3 have helped network to almost every Commonwealth nation's attention, we believed in 1984 & NOW that the web's technologies and human action learning impacts comprise the greatest challenge one generation 1984-2024 of humanity has ever faced with exponential impacts that will either sustain century 21 as the best or worse century waving through all 6+ billion beings on earth. We are dealing with both a media revolution (as great as the invention of the printing press or television) and a transport revolution (your children's productive lives may be with co-workers on the other side of the globe and their deepest mentors are certainly not all going to be in just one place)

Hi-trust human relation systems (such as true service economy organisations or markets) can be intervened with from communities up, across interlocal franchises, as well as globally-down. Maps can bring transparency to everyone sincerest productivities and most urgent demands if only we can redesign media (world class brands) and governance of what the 20th C quaintly separated into corporate .coms, regional .govs, as well as professions, medias, non-gov offices and all sorts of constitutional forms that were audited in ways that obssessed on short-term transaction whatever long-term risks this compounded. We can only put it this way because now we are half-way through 1984-2024 we are far further behind where we could be on such revolutions as climate, clean energy, health, media, education for all children and cross-culturally, ending systemic corruption and its extreme consequences such as poverty, war, loss of safety of all of us .

Reviewing the 16 DVDs on the World Series of Social Entrepreneur Champions (Series sponsors include Ashoka Skoll Changemakers - profiles debated at Calcutta and other Club of City and advocates of help BBC governors to stop being afraid of covering social entrepreneurs - their programmes matter more to kids futures than spectator sports do) DVD 1 GRAJEW BEYOND CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY I started with the Grajew dvd "Beyond Corporate Social Responsibility" since he's always been one of the greats whom I have found it harder to get stuff on because I don't speak Portuguese. I love this DVD because this guy has done what some CEOs -and sustainability investment funds - have said is necessary but few have so simply done. Namely while goodwill is wrongly or non-transparently audited, social responsibility puts an individual corporation at a cost disadvantage. What is needed is sector social responsibility, which if achieved is to nobody's disadvantage and the advantage of those who help pioneer its lead. This is what Grajew clearly did first with Brazil's toy industry - his origins are being in the toy sector, then agreeing to be the head of the main toy industry association, convening meetings until sufficient companies in the industry agreed they’d adopt a policy of not sourcing toys that involved child labour exploitation. The stories he tells are so straightforward I could well believe any CEO who cares could gain enormously from seeing this dvd; I wish it could be mass produced and given away with a copy of The Economist or some such mass channel to leaders. At http://er100.blogspot.com we chronicle my family and fellow Scots beliefs that the 1840s founder of The Economist (James Wilson) was one of the world champion social entrepreneurs of the 19th Century - anyway it was his inspiration that encouraged my father's entrepreneurial revolution trilogy between 1976-1984 where needs for social entrepreneurs were forecast if this 21st century is to become mankind's most civilised and best for all people, instead of its worst. It's interesting that Bill Drayton was the only one in the world to pick this idea up all that long ago so of course I am biased towards believing any networks he connects into are more likely to change the world than any other person I am aware of. Grajew has since gone on to involve a third by turnover of all Brazil's business in responsibility programs. I'd love to know if he has converted other whole sectors (still haven't finished DVD). I can also imagine that if a nation gets such a critical mass of companies believing in responsibility it becomes simpler to be an advocate of responsibility as a market advantage even if the whole sector doesn’t come with you. A question I would love to ask is does anyone know of any sector anywhere outside Brazil that has adopted sector responsibility regarding one of its sector deepest responsibilities (ie externality) or even a leader of a large business who is trying to form such a sector collaboration.

Survey of Shareholders of The Economist I am piloting this around questions like these Is the purpose of economics to compound better lives for all people or a few powers that be? Do they have a specific goal or vision for economics over the next decade? Do they agree that the 1840s founder (James Wilson) of The Economist was a 19th C social entrepreneur world champion? At er100 (vote for alumni networks of 100 entrepreneurial revolutionaries you believe children could benefit from knowing of and selectively connecting to before they grow up) we chronicle his beliefs in transparent statistics and sustaining business ethics; and how he died before his time trying to plant these in India run by British Empire I have got the complete listing of shareholders ; if you'd be interested to survey those in your city or country outside UK, please contact me and I wil first count up how many there are, as well as show you the latest version of the pilot survey to see if you feel it can be edited into a jointly user friendly form I have sent a first wave of surveys out to people who recognisably came from quakers businesses if they profile with a distinct response pattern, I will come back and summarise here I am aware that many professions are making a system beyond review - eg global branding -please tell us (C.M.Macrae.72@cantab.net) any references you have in this regard whether on economics or other professions that advise leaders

If you have been to Oxford or Cambridge , why not vote for alumni most likely to help humanity change the world ... if ClubofCity could be surveying other alumni institutes/networks please mail me with your suggestions C.M.Macrae.72@cantab.net
