Every organization runs on two operating systems. The first is visible: org charts, metrics, strategic plans. The second is invisible: the trust, connection, and shared purpose that determine whether the first one actually works.

That second system is your organization's social wealth. And in a world where technical skill can be hired, trained, or automated, it is the differentiator that remains.

Drawing on peer-reviewed research and decades of combined practice in collaborative leadership, Social Wealth gives leaders a practical framework for seeing and strengthening the relational side of work: eight Social Wealth Profiles that reveal how people build trust, engage, and respond to tension, and the WISE Method for protecting trust in the conversations that matter most.

Inside, you'll learn to:

  • Read the eight Social Wealth Profiles across your team
  • Turn relational friction into productive tension
  • Use the WISE Method to keep trust intact under pressure
  • Build relational infrastructure that outlasts any org chart

Carboni, Julia L.: - Julia created the Social Wealth Inventory to turn more than two decades of research into a tool leaders can actually use. A network scholar published widely on collaboration and collaborative governance, she has held faculty and leadership roles at top public affairs schools such as Syracuse's Maxwell School, Indiana's O'Neill School, and the University of Washington's Evans School. She is Executive Director of the William D. Ruckelshaus Center and an elected Fellow of the National Academy of Public Administration.Carboni, Darren J.: - "Darren leads operations, strategy, and delivery at Social Wealth Builders, drawing on two decades leading teams in healthcare, academic medicine, and mission-driven organizations - where the cost of poor collaboration shows up in patient safety, not just the numbers. He built an $11M simulation enterprise at SUNY Upstate Medical University and has led turnarounds and senior operations roles across the field. He also consults independently to leaders navigating change, which keeps the SWI grounded in what teams actually wrestle with."
