It’s been just over a month since John Harper took over as CEO of the influential global consulting firm FSG, but he already has plans to make the firm more supportive of diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in philanthropy at a time when they’re under threat.
Harper was announced as FSG’s new CEO late last year and officially stepped into the role on Jan. 2. He has been at the firm since 2019, most recently as managing director of its United States consulting division.
He has the benefit of already being an insider. Yet the 38-year-old said he’s still settling into the idea of being a CEO.
