Divya Agarwal
Founder & CEO
movement artist | cultivating understanding within individuals, teams, and communities
Divya founded Vivekam out of a desire to activate the discerning, "knowing" self within us all and to support individuals and teams in skillful self-expression during high-stakes situations.
Vivekam is grounded on the principle that discernment, combined with curiosity, humility, and a little humor, is the differentiating edge for skill development and performance. She is the architect of The New ROI.™️, Vivekam's framework for developing and sustaining individual, group, and organizational effectiveness.
Prior to Vivekam, Divya spent 15 years counseling Fortune 500 companies and executives, focusing on business transformation, organizational design and culture, and developing leaders and effective teams. She spent eight years at McKinsey & Company as an Associate Partner and two years at Mobius Executive Leadership as a Strategist to the CEO and as an organizational consultant and coach for clients.
Beyond supporting her clients in organizational and people effectiveness, she revels most in building and leading more conscious teams. Her early training as a gymnast and dancer, coupled with the last 20 years of yoga (RYT200 certified) and athletic development, has led her to use movement and embodiment practices to support individuals in accessing and processing thoughts, emotions, and energy.
She is an alum of Wharton, MIT, and Harvard's Kennedy School, and she lives in NYC.
