Are You Leading with an Abundance Mindset?


By Matt Lehrman

Social Prosperity Partners

True abundance isn’t just more resources—it’s the trust, connection, and courage that make progress possible. Leaders with an abundance mindset see people not as obstacles, but as partners in shaping the future.


Will Friedman’s just-published article, The Case for Civic Abundance, argues that material gains—housing, clean energy, medicine—only succeed when matched by civic abundance: strong participation, engagement, and shared responsibility.


That also happens to be the vision behind Social Prosperity Partners, where we define “social prosperity” as the wealth created when people work together courageously. It’s what turns ambitious projects into shared achievements and lasting pride.


From Paris to Fresno, Medellín to New York, the most inspiring examples happen when communities help shape decisions from the start. That’s how abundance grows a soul—and how leadership creates lasting prosperity.


Let me encourage you to read Will Friedman’s full article HERE


As a civic facilitator, I partner with leaders to bring people together—transforming ideas into progress that communities can truly own. If you’re navigating a challenge or pursuing a significant opportunity, please contact me and 
let’s explore how we can advance the cause of your community.
