Devika Arora – Keynote Speaker

Named one of India’s ten leading female trailblazers for 2021, business coach Devika Arora makes it her mission to catalyse organisations to act on the extraordinary value of keeping their workforces fulfilled.

Devika speaks with a strong sense of clarity and intent, and is lauded as “a deeply unique and authentic voice of her generation” (the FutureScape 248 lab) and “a speaker bringing a new model of healing and coaching for 21st-century leadership” (Shoonya Memorial Trust).

Devika offers meaningful techniques and models for both leaders and their teams on how to maintain a thriving work culture and environment, be it hybrid or in-person. Basing her insights on organisational psychology, her goal is clear – to help professionals stay cognitively alert, tuned in and “mentally nourished” in their livelihoods.

Devika Arora was recently appointed Vice President at the Women’s Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (WICCI; Bangalore Council) for her dedication to the field of business coaching. She is also a recipient of the DivHERsity Impact Award (Jobs for Her 2021).

Originally hailing from India’s Silicon Valley Bangalore, over the past decade Devika has worked across the UK and Canada. This includes stints at Oscar-winning film company MPC, Dell’s Alienware and GoPro.

With her social entrepreneur hat on, she has also successfully set up two initiatives building on her robust, extensive networks – self-discovery platform Magic Mind (sharing the best curated content on mental clarity and wellness) and 420: Char So Bees (an initiative shining light on new change makers).

Devika’s work merges organisational and user psychology, and her insights are seen as a powerful blend of realistic eastern and western methodologies. She does this through her talks, mentoring and coaching workshops internationally.

At a time when people are seeking guidance and hope, Devika Arora equips them with the confidence to flourish in the new reality we find ourselves in.
