“John Johnson is an impactful and very motivating speaker that creates opportunities before and during the facilitation to learn about the participants and reach them where they are. John centers his work on communicating efficiently and effectively and using his identities to connect with participants. Bringing John to my institution has been a highlight for our students and administrators.”

-Andrew Alvez | Chief Diversity Officer & Director of Intercultural Affairs at Union College

I recommend John Johnson as a guest speaker as he is an empowering and uplifting young speaker who really believes in his craft. He truly is one of a kind and I admire his poise and commitment to excellence. I appreciate his desire to improve himself, but more importantly his desire to improve the lives of others. John was an inspiration to the students and staff he engaged with for the first time during the conference and is a great representation of a true facilitator.

"What do we want for our young people...

John Johnson wears many hats: friend, mentor, counselor, motivator, troubleshooter, and teacher. John Johnson was a lead facilitator for our Make a Play Summer Youth Ambassador Program. John's approach, relatability, and delivery was engaging and impactful. His content allowed participants to feel heard, become critical thinkers, and make informed decisions. John also challenged them in a fun and educational way while allowing space to share experiences in a culturally relevant manner."

“Mr. Johnson’s message was very relatable to our students. His words resonated with me, and his connection with our students moved me. He was able to connect with them on their level and really give them advice that would be essential to their future success. He spoke with such passion and conviction, which impacted our students with full attention!  His message on self-worth, goal-making, and leadership really gave impact to our students’ way of thinking. I highly recommend booking Mr. John Johnson for workshops and speaking engagements. I am extremely grateful for the time he took to share his wisdom and experience with our students. He is an excellent speaker, and I am confident that he will make a huge impact on our youth.”
