Developing emotionally intelligent leaders who move with clarity, courage, and confidence.

Why work with AUC?
For nearly a decade, I’ve coached and developed leaders across Fortune 100 companies, high-growth organizations, and emerging teams, directly supporting over 40 leaders and influencing hundreds more through their teams and organizations.
My work has reached beyond the individual, shaping leadership behaviors, team dynamics, and decision-making across entire reporting structures, including senior leaders at the SVP level.
Coaching with me is direct, reflective, and deeply human. I listen for what’s unsaid, ask the questions others avoid, and challenge the patterns that keep capable leaders stuck. Together, we build self-awareness, strengthen decision-making, and create meaningful progress that shows up in both performance and presence.
The impact is measurable and human at the same time. Leaders I’ve coached have increased team engagement by over 20 percent, strengthened leadership confidence, improved cross-functional alignment, and stepped into expanded roles with greater clarity and presence.
I don’t just help leaders think differently. I help them show up differently in moments that matter.

What people are saying…
“It was the most impactful professional development experience I’ve had in my entire career in terms of changing behavior.”
“Spending time with Maliik helped me to break down complex situations and learn how to thrive while working my way through them. His ability to listen, diagnose, and brainstorm ideas to overcome challenges gave me an experience I'll never forget. There is no doubt I grew as a leader during my time with him, but more importantly I also grew as a person."
- Head of Sales
“Maliik’s executive coaching has been invaluable to me. Working in a large organization with few similarly situated diverse professionals, Maliik has been a guide and touchstone through a critical juncture in my career, transitioning from middle management to junior executive. He has helped me to sharpen a professional persona consistent with my authentic self, to prioritize short- and long-term goals at home and at the office, and to make decisions reflective of both my personal values and my company culture.”
- VP & General Counsel
“Maliik is a transformational leader. I got to work with him as a professional coach, and his listening, guidance, and accountability were instrumental in me breaking through logical and emotional barriers to my professional progress. It was the most impactful professional development experience I’ve had in my entire career in terms of changing behavior.”
