We are proud to announce that General (Ret) Austin S. (Scott) Miller will be USARA's 2024 guest speaker for the President’s Dinner.

General Austin Scott Miller recently retired after nearly 40 years in the United States Army. He supported, led, and shaped the most challenging national security issues at the highest levels of the United States government.

Throughout his military career, Scott worked side-by-side with diverse, multinational teams. Most recently, he commanded all U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan. He is known for fostering a deep sense of trust amongst his teams through transparent communication, competence, and empowerment. His areas of expertise include building positive cultures that create inclusive, durable, and high-performing cross-functional teams. He knows that the right culture provides organizations a competitive edge and allows them to more readily adapt to positive change and growth.

As Commander of the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), Scott directed U.S. operations in complex geopolitical regions including the Indo-Pacific, Africa, Middle East, and South Asia. As the Commanding General of the U.S. Army Maneuver Center of Excellence at Ft. Benning, he led the initiative to integrate women into the prestigious U.S. Army Ranger School; a significant advancement that laid the foundation for women to pursue top positions across the Army. He also commanded Assault Forces in Mogadishu, Somalia (Black Hawk Down).

Through Miller Advisory Group, Scott challenges and guides individuals and companies to increase their competitive advantage by understanding their business goals, leveraging and integrating technology, and being relentlessly adaptive to execute strategy. With four decades of crisis management experience, he applies lessons learned through optimizing individual and team performance to determine the best way forward in today’s complex world. He remains interested and active in the intersection of national security and commercial innovation.

Scott holds a Bachelor of Science from the United States Military Academy at West Point and a Masters in Strategic Studies from the Marine Corps Senior Service College.
