Frederick A. Miller
is the CEO and Lead Client Strategist of The Kaleel Jamison Consulting Group, Inc. A pioneer
and leading authority on creating cultures of inclusion that are high performing and enable each
person to do their best work, he was noted in The Age of Heretics (Currency Doubleday, 1996)
as one of the forerunners of corporate change. In his 30 plus years of experience he has worked
with numerous CEOs and senior level executives from such renowned companies as Mobil, Dupont, Toyota,
Foxwoods Casino, Eileen Fisher, Wild Planet Toys, Northeast Utilities, United Airlines, McArthur Foundation,
City of San Diego, and Apple Computers. Fred has also been involved with many Founders as they transition
from a "foundercentric" culture to one of a professional management staff. He was involved with this
transition at Ben & Jerry's Homemade, Inc., where he was on the board of directors for eight years.
In 1972, as a manager with Connecticut General Life Insurance Company (now CIGNA),
Fred helped pioneer one of the nation's first corporate diversity and inclusion efforts.
He joined Kaleel Jamison and KJCG in 1979. He was President and CEO of KJCG from 1985 to 2004
and has been CEO and Lead Client Strategist since 2004. Fred is particularly respected for his ability to examine a system, issue, or culture (small group, community, or organization) at multiple levels and quickly translate his observations into a customized, strategic vision and change-oriented action. Fred is currently on the board of directors for Day & Zimmerman, a $1.5 billion family-owned business; Seton Health Systems; and The Sage Colleges. He is a member of the Social Venture Network (SVN), where he and Judith H. Katz, Executive Vice-President at KJCG, have worked with socially responsible organizations as they build a culture in which they can live their values and accomplish their mission. He is a former board member of National Training Labs (NTL Institute), American Society for Training & Development (ASTD), and the Organization Development Network (ODN). Fred is co-author, with Judith Katz, of The Inclusion Breakthrough: Unleashing the Real Power of Diversity (Berrett-Koehler, 2002), and Managing Editor of The Promise of Diversity (McGraw-Hill Professional Publishing, 1994). He has been published in Chief Learning Officer, OD Practitioner, HR Professional, and Executive Excellence. He is also a regular speaker at national conferences.
