Joanna L. Jenkins, Ph.D., is a distinguished creative scholar-practitioner and author with a rich background spanning over 15 years at the intersections of research, creativity, education, and the strategic communication industry. Known for her expertise in convergence, she explores the blending of traditional and new media technologies, the integration of diverse intergenerational and cultural narratives, and  communication strategies to foster more inclusion and effective messaging. Dr. Jenkins authored the seminal book "The Convergence Crisis," which critically analyzes convergence, opportunities emerging from crises, and implications for the future of communication, workforce development, education, and culture.


Dr. Jenkins' extensive experience encompasses K-12, undergraduate, graduate, continuing education, professional, and executive studies. Her educational background is anchored in designing inclusive curricula, developing custom learning experiences, implementing culturally informed teaching methods, applying universal learning design, and assessment. She is dedicated to driving insights and cultivating inclusive environments where culturally and ethically competent students and professionals can thrive in their education and careers.


As a research scholar with Rutgers University's Center for Leadership, Equity & Justice, Dr. Jenkins' research and teaching span a diverse array of interconnected topics, with a particular emphasis on convergence. Her recent works include the textbook "Advertising Creative, Strategy, Copy & Design" published by Sage Publications, "Insecure #Awkward and Winning: Intersectionality in the Works of Issa Rae" from Peter Lang Publications, and the "ADColor's State of the Workplace Study: Retention Outlook Through an Inclusive Lens."


Joanna champions the needs and leadership of historically excluded groups in education and professions, particularly within the realms of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics), media, advertising and strategic communication. Throughout her career—including roles as Consultant, Coach, Associate Dean, Academic Program Coordinator, Professor, Creative Director, Designer, and Strategist—Joanna has demonstrated a consistent record of success in engagement, strategic planning, research, and learning & development. An active mentor & proud alumni of Pratt & Howard University, she welcomes opportunities to collaborate and guide the next generation of 

leaders and innovators.

"A perfect balance between expertise and relatability. Her recommendations were practical, empowering, and delivered with a tone that truly resonated with our community. I could see minds shifting in real time. Several participants remarked, 'Okay, I’ll give that a try."

Strategy

I help organizations and leaders navigate complexity, understand their audiences, clarify direction, identify opportunities, and move meaningful work forward. 


I work across education, nonprofit, and communications environments, partnering with leaders at every level to make sense of challenges, possibilities and performance.

Through research, assessment, audience insight, strategic thinking, and creative problem-solving, I develop insights, recommendations, plans, and solutions that turn uncertainty into informed strategic action.
