The Art of Active Allyship with Poornima Luthra

41 min • 12 mars 2025

What can we do?

I sit down with Dr. Poornima Luthra. She shares her PracAdemic activities within academia and as a practitioner. Whether you listen to this for yourself, as a leader or for your business, she asks us to visualise our spaces and places and consider ‘What can I do?’. She does this through the core pillars within Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.

Dr. Poornima Luthra is a recognised author, keynote speaker, business consultant, and leading practitioner-academic in the field of talent management and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI).

As Associate professor at the Copenhagen Business School, she provides effective DEI thought-leadership from a global perspective, workshops, and consultancy services for organisations who are determined to nurture inclusive workplaces for their diverse talent. She has been ranked as one of the world’s 30 up-and-coming management thinkers by Thinkers50 and is a recipient of the Professional Women of Colour Denmark Impact Award and winner of the Nordic Blaze Inclusion Award.

She is the author of Leading Through Bias (2023 (English)/ 2024 (Danish & Italian)), The Art of Active Allyship (2022), and Diversifying Diversity (2021) and is a contributor to Harvard Business Review on topics related to DEI.
