What would economic development look like if resident well-being and equity were primary goals, not aspirational after-effects of growth? In a new @edqjournal.bsky.social article, Associate Director for Equity and Opportunity Haegi Kwon presents a framework to do exactly that.

Screenshot of the Economic Development Quarterly website showing an open-access article. A dark blue header bar displays the journal name “Economic Development Quarterly.” Below, a line of metadata reads: “Impact Factor: 1.6 / 5-Year Impact Factor: 1.7,” a “Journal Homepage” button on the right, and a link labeled “Request permissions.” The article is labeled “Article commentary” and “First published online October 28, 2025.” Title: “Looking in, Leveraging, and Locking: An Asset-Based Framework for Economic Development Policy and Practice.” Author: Haegi Kwon, with a link to “View all authors and affiliations.” Badges indicate Open Access and Creative Commons licensing. Additional labels include “OnlineFirst.” The DOI shown at the bottom is “https://doi.org/10.1177/08912424251378116.” The page background is white with simple black and gray text.

The disappearance of America’s leadership class at a time like this means that the rest of us have to be leaders. We can no longer wait to be led by those with the power and authority to lead. You must lead, I must lead, all of us must lead. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for.
