dōTERRA Founding Executives and Leadership Team

David Stirling

Founding Executive & CEO

Imagine the world when the benefits of essential oils were largely unknown to most and access to purity was limited. In 2008, the hearts and minds of seven qualified individuals came together under the visionary leadership of David Stirling to form a unique organisation called doTERRA. Now, take a minute to breathe in the amazing progress in global expansion and opportunities that have exploded as doTERRA is recognised as the global leader in what has become a multi-billion dollar industry of essential oils. As David continues to lead doTERRA as CEO, his natural abilities to guide unprecedented global growth, including new market openings, and the truly remarkable Co-Impact Sourcing, benefits the full doTERRA family. Through all of David’s achievements he continues to place the growth and progress of people as the first priority of his leadership, mentoring others through his kindness and service-focused mindset. He will tell you that his greatest accomplishments are the many wonderful friends, exciting adventures, and incredible service opportunities that have been created for the entire doTERRA family, through doTERRA’s growth and success.

David encourages everyone in the doTERRA family to work together, finding strength in our differences and in the common bonds of our communities. As we become more kind, patient, and supportive, we become emboldened to lift each other, providing permission to others to grow in their own capacity, power, and happiness.

Dr David K. Hill

Founding Executive

Throughout the world it is difficult to find an active doTERRA Wellness Advocate who doesn’t know and admire Dr Hill. His rare combination of natural abilities to listen, love, and teach is well enriched with his vast understanding and knowledge of pure essential oils and how they collectively and independently offer solutions for health and wellness. As a Founding Executive, Dr Hill has mentored thousands of Wellness Advocates throughout the history of doTERRA, which has helped cultivate the unique culture found within the organisation. As the leading expert in essential oils at doTERRA, he challenges our teams to find only the highest quality botanicals and ingredients and provide superior safety standards. He shares his knowledge openly in order to empower everyone to use these gifts of the earth and continues to help find new and exciting products for the market.

Dr Hill encourages the medical community to look at supplementary options when healing the whole person and encouraging wellness. He looks forward to a future where the essential oil community and modern medicine can co-exist in a doctor’s office so that people will have more options and control of their healthcare. Until this day arrives, he will continue to collaborate with the medical community through studies, trials and capable physicians.

Rob J. Young
