The management team is headed by the Executive Director who is responsible to plan and implement all programs and projects as approved by the Governing Body of the organization. He is assisted by several Directors and the supporting staff at various levels. The main programs are run through the Branch Offices with support staff attached to each Branch. All the programs are monitored and supported by the Head office, Zonal offices and Area offices. Branch offices organize people and build a receiving mechanism among the grass roots people in order to deliver various socio-economic services to them.
IDF has been an open and learning organization from its inception. Staff-members, especially mid-level and junior executives are exposed to different training in the areas of microfinance operations, management and technological skills. Development practitioners from fraternal countries e.g. Nepal, Vietnam, China, USA, visit regularly IDF operational areas to develop insights; these exposures have been mutually beneficial to both the hosts and the visitors.
