Joy Ogunneye

Global Innovation & Brand Comms Lead, Aveeno Face, Sun & Hair
Kenvue

Joy is a speaker, marketing executive, and leadership voice helping people lead with more humanity, courage, and clarity, especially in seasons that ask them to grow.

For more than 15 years, she has built brands and led growth strategies for Fortune 500 consumer products companies, shaping work that reaches millions of homes while driving meaningful organizational impact behind the scenes. As the current Global Innovation & Brand Communication Head on Aveeno® Face, Sun, & Hair at Kenvue (formerly Johnson & Johnson), she leads innovation pipeline, strategic planning and operating plan goals on the Aveeno® brand. But her work has always extended beyond marketing.

Joy has become known for talks that blend leadership, belonging, resilience, and identity with uncommon honesty and emotional precision. She has spoken on stages including ADWEEK, Brand Innovators, and BLACKWEEK, and has hosted global town halls reaching more than 22,000 employees, including from the New York Stock Exchange. Her message is rooted in a belief she learned firsthand: the hardest seasons of your life are often shaping the leader you’re becoming. Growth rarely looks graceful while you’re inside it. However, pressure has purpose. And the version of yourself you’re searching for is often waiting on the other side of the thing you’re trying to survive.

At the center of Joy’s work is a simple mission: helping people find their ‘why’ and giving them permission to stop choosing between strength and softness, ambition and humanity, power and joy. Because the best leaders don’t become less themselves to succeed.

They become more fully who they are.
