1.0 Introduction: Microfinance in Africa - Experience and Lessons from Selected African Countries
Small enterprises and most of the poor population in sub-Saharan Africa have very limited access to deposit and credit facilities and other financial services provided by formal financial institutions. For example, in Ghana and Tanzania, only about 5–6 percent of the population has access to the banking sector. This lack of access to financial services from the formal financial system is quite striking, when one considers that in many African countries the poor represent the largest share of the population and that the informal sector is an important part of the economy.

Human Capital Formation by MNEs: Supporting Formal Education
While training is no doubt the major source of HRD activities undertaken by the MNEs, they can also contribute to the HRD of host developing countries by mobilising formal education. One of the MNEs that has invested substantially in formal education is Intel. They have invested in curriculum, educational equipment, infrastructure and technical support to almost all countries where they have production facilities, including Argentina, Brazil, Costa Rica, China, Malaysia, South Korea, India, Russia, Poland, Ireland and South Africa.

7.3.2 Training as a basic social service: Mainstreaming skills development for the poor
Redressing inequities and under-provision in the formal education system is of vital importance, both for achieving a more equitable allocation of jobs in the formal sector for women and other disadvantaged groups and, more widely, for sustained poverty reduction.

Why Are Strategic Alliances Important to Your Small Business
Global Edge defines a strategic alliance as a “collaborative agreement between two companies designed to achieve some strategic goal.” Traditionally, strategic alliances take place between larger companies and encompass formal arrangements such as “international licensing agreements, management contracts, and joint ventures” - but more and more small businesses are banding together in less formal ways to form strategic partnerships of their own. What are some of the benefits of forming small business strategic alliances?

A Matter of Trust
Trust is the basis for all successful leaders and all successful relationships for that matter. You cannot buy trust, but it is free. Trust is priceless yet can be earned over time. Have you ever tried to request someone’s trust? Maybe it was a team member, customer or a colleague. You may have wanted a decision to be made in your favor. To overcome some initial disagreement and expedite the decision making process, you might resort to “Hey, just trust me!” That statement is worthless. Either the other party already trusted you based on your past actions or they did not trust you and your request won’t change that. Trust is not spoken, it is demonstrated. Trust cannot be requested, it must be earned.

Entrepreneurs Want To Write A Small Proposal or Quotation?
A proposal is a document written to outline work that will be done at a set price in response to receiving a request for proposal, or more formally a RFP (Request For Proposal), ITT (Invitation To Tender) or RFP (Request For Tender). A quotation is a less formal document that is a document that outlines the work to be done and a reasonably accurate price for its completion.

Retailing is Detailing – All about the Customer Loyalty Program
It is very common to receive an update request from the customer like “we have created a database of 500 customers and we want to introduce a loyalty program for them” The most common reply to this request is “Yes we have a CRM module and this is the update charges” Although the question is answered but it leaves many questions unanswered.

Sustainability – the new criteria
What is your position on SUSTAINABILITY? What community improvement activities is your company involved with? These are questions, among many others, that my team and I are responding to for a Request For Proposal (RFP) document for a sales training project with a large Australian Corporation. This is the first time we have been asked to respond to these questions in a formal manner and legitimise our position on ‘sustainability’. As sales people and as business owners, not only are we being asked to legitimise our product offering, our service standards, etc. we are now required to articulate our stand on ‘sustainability’.

What\'s An Opinion, Anyway?
A client called me recently with what she said might sound like an odd request. "I need your 'opinion,'" she said, "and it has to be in writing. Can you do that? And what does that mean, anyway?" After reassuring her that it was not an odd request and that not only could I do it, I would, I gave her an explanation...
