Becoming a Powerful, Collaborative, Vital Team
An Aligned Leadership Team is an Unstoppable Force
To tackle increasingly the complex problems of our world, a leadership team must have productive, meaningful relationships to become a cohesive unit.
“Aurum has helped us create a common vocabulary, enhance our leadership toolbox, and broken down barriers 30+ years in the making. We are operating more synergistically, and the rest of our organization sees and feels it."
This means confronting and working with the dynamics that get in the way, both as individuals and as a group. When you’re in the leadership seat, the stakes are high – any fractures and politics within the leadership team reverberate and multiply throughout the company and undermine collaboration and growth.
Unity does not mean consensus or lack of debate. On the contrary - the best teams actively support diverse points of view, and integrate opposing perspectives to align behind a common vision. The VITAL Team Program guides leaders to trust and support one another, (even when they disagree!), which creates alignment that becomes a clear beacon for the rest of the organization.

Growth on all fronts The power of your organization lies at the intersection of Self, Relationships, and Action. All these domains are implicitly at play at any given moment. Most organizations focus their attention and development efforts primarily on the Action domain, while Vital Teams harness the power and synergy of all three.
Our integrated VITAL TEAM MODEL is a roadmap that describes the six dimensions of a successful, vital team. Every group will have its areas of strength, and areas of limitation or challenge. The Vital Team Program adapts the curriculum to each unique team to meet you where you are and provide support and training where it’s needed most. Operating and leading an organization is complex. What makes the difference is how skilled you are at navigating this territory as a team. |

Long term impact across the business
The models, skills and tools learned in the Vital Team Program become staples on teams for years to come, creating alignment, clarity and focus. As the team improves its communication skills, ability to learn, problem solve and engage in healthy, honest debate, these changes generate waves of positive engagement throughout the organization.
While teams that have gone through the Vital Team process see significant improvements in the team functioning and effectiveness, they are often surprised by the dramatic improvement in productivity, communication and collaboration throughout the organization.
Almost every organization that has done this program sees dramatic growth and expansion of their business. One company went on to achieve 5x revenue growth and almost tripled the size of the organization within 2-3 years of making this investment in their team. A partnership on the brink of collapse rebounded with renewed creativity to expand into new markets, and a newly formed team outperformed all expectations. We regularly hear from our clients about breakthroughs, innovations and business results that they directly correlate to the work they have done with us.

The Vital Team program is highly customizable
We have three versions of the program, based on your team's situation and area of focus:
VITAL Team Launch Program
For a new team coming together - ideal for merged teams, start ups, and newly formed leadership teams. Develop positive frameworks to prevent common pitfalls. An insurance policy to set up the team for success.
VITAL Team Reboot Program
For a team that’s been together for a while - typically has some established patterns that need a fresh perspective or is challenged in some way. Whether it’s about conflict, alignment or communication, this process gives the system a reset.
VITAL Team Development Program
For teams navigating times of growth and change - When ‘what got you here won’t get you there’, it’s time to upgrade, develop new skills and expand the team’s capacities.
We also use team assessments and interviews to clarify areas of strength and challenge on the team. We tailor the specific content to your unique needs and style. The program includes a blend of monthly team training sessions, individual leadership coaching, 360's, restorative conflict resolution, curated resources and in-person team retreats.
