The data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and literature study. This study illustrates organizing skills --that could help community workers to be more adaptive to organizational and environmental dynamics in the process of microfinance-- are organizational restructuring based on environmental needs and changes, flexible direction to develop a supportive organizational climate, and the development of organizing skills down to the grassroots.
