John G. Graham Jr.

VP Employer Brand, Diversity & Culture
Shaker Recruitment Marketing

It is said that one of the hardest questions to answer in life is "Who are you?" Through self-discovery, failure, and success I know myself to be a creative communicator, a connector of cultures and a leader by inspiration. I believe in the power of human connection and I take pride in being the bridge between aspirations and opportunities for others.

Professionally, my passion is helping global companies discover the essence of who they are at their core. Through award winning employer brand and employee value proposition development, I’ve found fulfillment in discovering innovative ways to bring the humanity of employee stories to life. As a DEI practitioner and culture transformation consultant, my work centers on improving the lived experiences of marginalized employee populations through bleeding-edge approaches that disrupt the status quo and create equitable and inclusive environments.

As a keynote speaker, coach, executive consultant, and author, I engage global audiences on topics ranging from Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, the power of personal branding, and employer brand activation through culture marketing strategies. As a result, I’ve been able to help CEO’s navigate diversity strategies, executives develop a more authentic voice on social media, students land their first dream job and seasoned professionals rebrand themselves to attract their next career opportunity.
