Research shows that abundance leaders have healthier organizations in which team work, conflict resolution, communication, and other key organizational attributes are much stronger. The Abundance Leadership and Organization Health instrument benefits leaders by giving them insight into their style and learning where change is needed to improve their organization. We benchmark results from your organization against data we have collected from over 300 staff and leaders in over 120 organizations.

The Abundance Leadership and Organizational Health Model
Abundance leaders see the possibilities in all situations, share power, share credits, and work from an optimistic standpoint. Scarcity leaders see the world as an inherently difficult place without enough resources. They tend to hoard information and power. Research shows that abundance leaders have healthier organizations in which team work, conflict resolution, communication, and other key organizational attributes are much stronger.
Laura Freebairn-Smith has developed an instrument to evaluate leadership style on the spectrum of abundance versus scarcity. This instrument includes a survey to evaluate a leader’s orientation, based on data collected anonymously and confidentially from subordinates and peers, which is presented in an individualized, 24-page report. For the individual leader, this report provides a basis for discussing the pros and cons of each stance and for looking at ways to use the better aspects of each model to lead staff. For the organization, this instrument can be a powerful tool: as the nucleus of a leadership development program, as a 360ยบ feedback instrument, or as a means for determining the link between an organization’s leaders and the organization’s overall health.
