Ken Janssens

After creating the first LGBT+ employee network group for a bank in Brazil four years ago, Ken recently led a six month campaign to create the J.P. Morgan LGBT+ Executive Council, made up of the 20 most senior/openly LGBT+ Managing Directors at the firm. He also helped to create the firm’s LGBT+ employee network in India and helped put in place a global process that governs how and when JPMC makes public statements in support of LGBT+ Rights around the world. Under Ken’s leadership, the first all gender bathroom and shower room was established in the UK at the London Technology Centre. He has also publicly shared his coming out story and journey to LGBT+ Advocate at the National Gallery in London in July 2017 as part the Equality Institute organised by Out & Equal, Walt Disney and Sodexo. Externally, Ken is on the board of Out & Equal, as well as being an active mentor in the OUTstanding Mentoring programme. He is regularly featured in the media, whether recording vlogs or co-authoring op-eds, discussing the topic of LGBT+ inclusion in the workplace.
