Judith H. Katz and Frederick A. Miller

For more than fifty years, Fred and Judith have been working individually and together on organization and cultural transformation to create more inclusive and higher-performing workplaces.

As CEO and Executive Vice President, Emeritus, respectively, for The Kaleel Jamison Consulting Group, Inc.—one of Consulting magazine’s Seven Small Jewels—Fred and Judith have partnered with hundreds of Fortune 100 companies, universities, governmental agencies, municipalities, and nonprofit organizations. Their aim is always to create organizations in which the level of interaction safety elevates the quality of interactions, leverages people’s differences, and transforms workplaces into growth and learning environments where people’s talents are unleashed, results are accelerated, and productivity soars. Their partnership is proof that teamwork and collaboration do create breakthroughs.

Through their thought leadership and practical approaches for transforming workplaces, they have brought their unique perspectives, passion, and energy, that few can match, to make a difference in organizations.

Together they have co-authored and co-edited seven books and hundreds of articles. Among their books is the groundbreaking, The Inclusion Breakthrough: Unleashing the Real Power of Diversity (2002), the first book to address the need for inclusion in organizations and how to make systemic change.

Through their work together, they have been able, individually, and collectively, to soar—and to inspire and enable individuals, teams, and organizations to do the same.
