Utilizing presentation software and a presentation style geared towards concept-based learning, Miller avoids text-heavy presentations, instead relying on media and narration to deliver concepts and supporting objectives. This method is proven to assist the learner in retaining information, raising the value for the audience member and ensuring information can be brought back successfully from the learner to their organization.
Miller relies on his previous experience as a teacher, detective for the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department, a Special Federal Officer for the FBI St. Louis Division Gang Gun and Drug Task Force, and position as the System Public Safety and Security Vice President for a major Midwest healthcare organization to create presentations while seeking out new information and best practice to educate learners. This style of presenting was recognized in 2014 when Miller was certified by the Department of Justice as a authorized presenter for the FBI. Miller’s passion for public speaking is immediately evident in his delivery of information and refusal to be confined by traditional “podium prison” speaking methods.
