Jared N Miller - CEO of KEZA Dyslexic

Jared N Miller, a long time business developer, marketing consultant and philanthropist, is a former partner of The Incubator Group, a private equity firm based in his home town of Nashville, TN. He believes in the power of “ubuntu” and has committed his life to perpetuating the philosophy that we are all interconnected and not fully human alone. We were created for community. Miller is the founder and President of KEZA, a non-profit “People Inspired Fashion” consulting agency. KEZA helps develop women’s cooperatives in Africa by turning them into sustainable and profitable businesses for the women that own them. Miller says, “The women of Africa are just as capable of running a successful business and creating luxury fashion products as the best fashion companies in Milan”. His first success is BURANGA Women’s Cooperative, currently creating the KEZA beaded jewelry seen in such magazines as “O”, and featured in high end boutiques across the US. He is also the creator of Ubuntu Revolution, an “African Gender Equality Movement” of media, culture and sports. The purpose of the movement is to target the male role in gender disparity and combat violence and oppression towards women and girls. “It is time we get to the root of gender based violence; and that is the men that are carrying it out. And we must inspire them to change their ways, not demand it”, says Miller. He is currently working with a number of gender equality focused organizations and individuals to implement the program in East Africa. On top of all this Jared has dyslexia. In this Friday’s interview at 8:00 AM ET we’ll be discussing how Jared went from a dyslexic kid with all the problems that are associated with dyslexia to the CEO of this world changing organization.
