The Abundance League Charter
The Abundance League is a growing network of social
visionaries, instigators and community leaders that gather
monthly to explore the social architecture of sustainability,
to share positive solutions, and to co-create a new culture
of abundance. Our focus is not only on results, but on the
process of collaboration and mutual support. We are open
to everybody.
The Abundance League Mingle Dynamics-
Our community supports the following dynamics….
Be authentic
Represent yourself, your passions, and your projects
authentically
Give authentically
Don't give beyond your means, make offers you cannot
honor or give gifts with expectation of return!!!
Say hi
Smile, or "tip your hat" to acknowledge those directly
around you or walking by. Acknowledging is a
simple way to honor and welcome others.
Make connections
Introduce others to those you've met. A good community
is often a place where everyone knows everyone.
Connecting the dots is fun.
Ask questions
Learn about those you meet. Ask about their passions,
talents, and projects so that you can introduce
them to the people and ideas that can help them.
Help if you can
Once you learned someone's passions, offer them a favor
such as e-mailing a link, recommending a book,
giving moral support, or making an introduction.
Listen
Listen to others as you would want them to listen to you!
Sparkle
Be bright and brief in group conversation. Honor others'
time and attention.
Mind if I Mingle?
If you want to break from a group, say politely something like,
"it was nice meeting you, do you mind if I continue mingling?"
Make yourself known
Share your opinions, talents, projects, and passions in an
authentic and respectful way. Let people know where you
need help.
Remember names
Using a new acquaintance's name several times in conversation
can help you to remember it. Do not be afraid to ask their
name again if you forget.
