Aurum Leadership is now a Benefit Corporation!

In early 2024, we became a Benefit Corporation, committed to using business as a force for social, economic, and environmental good. Our mission is to cultivate awakened leadership and support mission-driven and nonprofit organizations aligned with this vision. We also offer programs to underserved communities and emerging young leaders.

Our mission is to cultivate powerful leadership based in compassion, truth and authenticity, for the good of our collective future. 

As a Benefit Corp, we are accountable to all stakeholders to fulfill this mission.
​We also donate 1% of our profits to social and environmental causes. ​​

• Direct - We don’t tiptoe or sugarcoat. We tell it how it is, with compassion and directness. 
  
  
• Relational - We teach people how to show up, deal with conflict and create bonds that carry you through the toughest times.
  
  
• Embodied - We live what we teach. Our style of leadership is alive, relational and embodied. We blend somatic methods with cutting-edge neuroscience, and down-to-earth common sense. 

• Fun - The deepest learning happens when we are engaged, connected and having fun. Laughter and joy are essential to work, life and leadership.

More about the aurum approach

Charles Hoage
​Former CEO of ServiceMaster, Concord, CA

​ I have worked with many consulting firms over the years, and participated in dozens of leadership development seminars–none have come close to providing the deep learning our team received through Aurum's human-centered, experiential and dynamic approach. Our work with Aurum transformed our organization in incredible ways.

Ragu Bhargava,
Co-founder & CEO, Global Upside​

Aurum helped facilitate communications between each of us to understand one another's perspectives. Everybody around the table felt like they have space to voice their opinion. Our improved communication was crucial to the successful sale of the company!

Special Olympics Southern California
Retreat participant

We were able to break it down and understand what each department/employee has on their plate and really see that we all have to work together in order for us to move forward and provide the best programs for our athletes.

In my 14 years with SOSC, I feel that this has been the best training I have had.
​Looking forward to additional trainings.

Alicia Stiving
Chief Culture Officer, ServiceMaster

As a younger female executive, Aurum has helped me solidify my confidence, harness my power and own my seat at the table. I'm learning to stand comfortably within my True Self, and let the world see my truth, love and strength in all roles in my life.
​If you are looking for a true gift for your team and yourself, I highly recommend incorporating Aurum Leadership into your life.

Maya Lane
​LMFT & Theater Director

I highly recommend this training as it has been changing my life in so many ways and I can already see the results! The Aurum True Self model delves into the depths of each person and gives tools not only for leadership on the career front, but also for everyday life. I learned how to step into my power and authenticity in my relationships, which has impacted my leadership on all fronts. The program was all very immersive and experiential."

Lisette Sutherland, CEO
​Collaboration Superpowers

The "Courageous Conversations" workshop led by Aurum Leadership is a game-changer for anyone navigating challenging discussions. The provided worksheet and formula offer a structured yet flexible approach, de-escalating the emotion often associated with tough conversations. What I loved most were the practice sessions, which helped turn theoretical concepts into actionable skills. I highly recommend this work to professionals at all levels.
