Built from years of working with real people on real teams
Aurora was created from years of consulting and training leaders and organizations. It turns lived experience into a practical system that makes a lasting impact
The experience behind Aurora
The platform may be new.
The work behind it is not.
Aurora emerged from years of hands-on leadership development, team facilitation, and culture work inside real organizations.
For years, we worked directly with leaders and teams, supporting growth, navigating conflict, strengthening collaboration, and helping organizations build healthier ways of working together.
Again and again, we saw what worked — and what didn’t.
We saw that lasting change didn’t come from one-off interventions. It came when organizations had shared language, utilized practical tools, and developed the internal capability to lead the work themselves.
Aurora represents a deliberate shift: from doing the work for organizations, to equipping organizations to do the work from within.
By transforming proven programs into a coherent, AI guided system, Aurora makes leadership and culture development more scalable, sustainable, and easy to embed in everyday work.
Created and supported by seasoned guides
Aurora was created by practitioners with decades of experience in organizational development, facilitation, psychology, and coaching.
While Aurora is designed for internal ownership, you don’t have to do it alone.
Our trusted network of experienced coaches and facilitators support onboarding and orientation, and can provide co-facilitation and Train-the-Trainer experiences as needed.
Aurora provides a foundation, upon which you can build capacity and organizational ownership over time.
Our Leadership
Deepika Sheleff
Co-founder Aurum Leadership Institute
Deepika Sheleff is the co-founder of Aurum Leadership and co-creator of Aurora, a digital platform that enables facilitators, leaders, and L&D teams to deliver transformational leadership and culture development programs at scale.
Her work draws on decades of experience in somatic practice, leadership & executive coaching, and organizational development, helping leaders cultivate self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and courageous communication.
Through Aurora, Deepika has helped translate years of hands-on work with executives and teams into an integrated ecosystem of programs, tools, and practices that help organizations build trust, strengthen leadership, and create resilient, human-centered cultures.
Devi Cavitt Razo
Co-founder Aurum Leadership Institute
Devi Cavitt Razo is a leader in human and organizational transformation — and a prolific creator of the programs, tools, and frameworks that make transformation possible at every scale.
Over three decades, she has developed an integrated body of work that spans the personal, the relational, and the systemic. She is the co-creator of Aurora, an AI-assisted diagnostic and leadership development platform. And through Aurum Leadership International, she works with leaders, boards, and teams navigating significant transition — bringing the same depth of human development work she has refined over decades into the life of organizations.
She is the creator of Essentials of Self, a four-day immersive retreat for adults reconnecting with their essential nature and inner authority, and Young Adult Essentials of Self, a program for young adults offered internationally through the School of the Essential Self.
Her conviction is simple and hard-won: what transforms a culture is the transformation of the people within it. Inner work and organizational work are not separate domains — they are the same work, approached from different angles.
Before founding the Aurum Group, Devi spent seventeen years at the Hoffman Institute as a teacher, Vice President, and Director of Faculty and Programs. What she brings from those years, and from everything she has built since, is the ability to bridge the deep waters of transformational work — the spiritual, the evolutionary, the somatic, the systemic — with clarity, practicality, and common sense. The profound and the practical, held together.
