Human Capital Strategist | Bridge Builder | Racial Reconciler | Minister
The Full Story
Reverend Cornell Jenkins is a Human Capital Strategist of 29 years with specialties in employee development, recruiting, staffing, risk mitigation, and labor relations. He is uniquely qualified to advise at the executive level because of his expert knowledge of HR functions and how they augment organizational strategy — a powerful combination that enhances the business practices of his clients and increases their bottom line.
Reverend Jenkins has served faithfully in ministry for 24 years in many capacities: Sunday school teacher, small group leader, Minister to Men, and counselor to other preachers. He has performed weddings, funerals, and other sacred duties in the church. He currently serves as a financial mentor to pastors for the Mid-Atlantic Faith Foundation.
He is a dynamic teacher and facilitator, educating and empowering people of differing backgrounds to mutually understand, empathize, and come together. In the winter of 2021, he co-facilitated a class for the Bayit organization on Black and Jewish Racial Reconciliation. In 2024, Cornell facilitated a class for Black Christians entitled Healing Racial Trauma in the Black Church. And in 2025, he facilitated a class for White Christians entitled Bridging the Racial Gap in the Church.
Reverend Jenkins has earned a Bachelor of Science from the University of Maryland, University College (Human Resources Management) and a Master of Theological Studies from Wesley Theological Seminary (concentration in Race and Public Theology).
