CHALLENGING ASSUMPTIONS. BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS.
Together, we cultivate opportunities for learning, business, dialogue, partnership, personal growth, and friendship.
We are a private community of critically minded people, connected through curated meetings, ongoing dialogue and shared opportunities, both online and in person at our annual gathering in Tla’amin Territory.
ABM's intentional curation ensures cohesion among Members committed to Indigenous sovereignty and reciprocal participation.
Each month, Members choose from ten Online Connectors hosted in our proprietary online environment and attend one or more. Each Connector offers up to five private 20-minute meetings to build new connections and deepen existing ones.
“The ABM Community is a community of care, ideas, and new ways of doing good business together.”
Your next conversation could lead to a new idea, a trusted relationship or an unexpected opportunity.
Each Member also belongs to one of our 14 Spheres. The Spheres focus the Community’s collective capacity, bringing people together across sectors and territories to develop opportunities and solutions.
Our high-touch approach facilitates introductions, brings Members together around shared priorities and helps move work forward.
Guests are not only welcome but actively sought out for the fresh perspectives and opportunities they bring, with the potential to join our Community.
We uphold the community we have created as a stronghold for honest dialogue about the complex dynamics of business, money, and their effects on human relationships, culture, and the planet. Through this dialogue, we evolve how we do business in service of a livable planet.
Prosperous people on a livable planet.
ABM Members share a commitment to developing the critical perspectives necessary to understand our responsibilities to one another, to Indigenous sovereignty, to the communities and territories in which we live and work, and what we can and cannot do in the name of business.
ABM Builders provide extraordinary support for the Community through active participation online and in person, leadership of a Sphere, warm introductions that help ABM grow while preserving cohesion, and ongoing conversations about how to improve ABM and continually create opportunities through relationships.
ABM Leaders are Builders who also support their Indigenous government or development corporation partners in making connections within the ABM Community.
