Praise for ABUNDANCE LEADERS "Laura Freebairn-Smith has played an important role in my professional life and particularly shaped my perspective on strategic planning, as both a consultant and a colleague. How gratifying, then, to see that her book, Abundance Leaders, seamlessly combines her erudition, lived experience, and common sense. This volume stands as a fresh and uplifting resource for all those interested in learning more about leadership, whether they consider themselves aspiring, emerging, or established in their fields." --James Bundy, Elizabeth Parker Ware Dean, David Geffen School of Drama, Artistic Director, Yale Repertory Theatre "Laura Freebairn-Smith is generous in sharing her personal journey, and academic and professional experience, about what makes good leaders tick. And thankfully Laura explains practical applications for those of us who strive to lead and live with abundance. Abundance Leaders: Creating Energy, Joy, and Productivity in an Unsettled World is a must-read and ready reference for those of us who aspire to 'activate the energy of their internal cultures to achieve results for all 4 Ps--planet, people, profit, and purpose.' " --Angela G. Powers, Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, The Community Foundation for Greater New Haven "For many years, Laura Freebairn-Smith has been deeply involved in organizational development here at Yale University, especially turning managers into leaders. And now, in this highly readable book, she shares her many ideas for all those who want to lead creatively and expansively. Blending an approach rooted in individual psychological skills with perspectives at the organizational level, Dr. Freebairn-Smith's wisdom and experience are broadly applicable to all leaders in the public and private, nonprofit and for-profit sectors." --Peter Salovey, President and Chris Argyris Professor of Psychology, Yale University "Abundance Leaders combines the rigors of academic research with the soul and self-examination required for leading in a fragile world. Freebairn-Smith guides leaders to use analytical thinking and interpersonal adeptness to achieve their organization's purpose and a larger purpose--making the world better for all of us." --Barry Nalebuff, Milton Steinbach Professor, Yale School of Management, Author of Split the Pie "Many believe that leadership is an inherited trait. That strong leaders are born, have command presence and a natural ability to lead. In truth, leadership is a skill shaped by many inputs. Abundance Leaders provides a compelling model for any organization seeking to build its leadership depth and for any individual pursuing their personal leadership journey. By unlocking the power of personal purpose with the thoughtful articulation of the energy created by leading from a position of abundance, Laura provides us all with a must-read management resource. I've had the benefit of seeing Laura's work transform my organization and shape the leader I am today. I highly recommend this book as a go-to resource for the newly aspiring leader and institutional veteran." --Ramon Soto, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing and Communications Officer, Northwell Health
