1.0 Introduction
The concept of leadership is very elusive, and even more it is defining is too difficult. This report tries to put a relation and explain the leadership styles of the Nobel laureate Dr. Muhammad Yunus who is the pioneer of microcredit or microfinance and also renowned as the Banker of the poor only in his country Bangladesh but also across the world. He is the founder of Grameen bank, a bank for the poor. He introduces the idea of microcredit as he found the fact that most of the poor at his country only for the collateral issue could not apply for the loans. The Grameen Bank had improved their welfare by providing the credit facilities. After sometimes it has referred as the community bank. The bank is totally different because structurally not traditional. They don’t require any collateral from the client, the group (provides poor individual to become an agent of the Bank) used as a guarantee and turn their poverty into welfare. So the meaning of village appears as the name of the bank. In 2006, Grameen Bank and Prof. Yunus awarded the coveted Nobel Prize of peace for their efforts to create economic and social development.
