Scaling-up the Strategic IQ of entrepreneurs and their unicorn-bound ventures, I deliver unforgettable keynote speeches for entrepreneurship events that engage, educate, and entertain. Entrepreneurs seeking competitive advantage in the fog of venturing will be enlightened and inspired to venture with vision! Yes, I am totally blind. And, while lacking eyesight, I abound with entrepreneurial insight! Known as The Startup Unicorn Trainer, I’m Dr. Steven James "SJ" Maranville, Chairman of Maranville Enterprises—The Guide by the Entrepreneur's Side. Born with eyesight; I had the DNA that would ultimately cause the loss of that sight. By age 7, I was legally blind. And, into adulthood, I was totally blind. This loss resulted in a traumatic fear of change. Realizing life’s only true certainty is change, it was imperative for me to conquer that fear. So, I embarked on a life-long study of change. I now use those lessons to educate entrepreneurs and their unicorn-bound ventures on how to be adaptive and transformational. In a manner of speaking, I boost the “vision acuity” of entrepreneurs who are adrift in the fog of venturing by removing their blindspots and fitting them with new lenses so they Venture With Vision!

I spent over 15 years as a content developer and a senior film executive at studios such as MGM and Sony, and then earned a PhD in psychology from UCLA where I researched the impact of media on children. This unique background informs my perspective. I work at the intersection of positive youth development, entertainment media and scientific research. The entertainment media that tweens and teens spend hours consuming shape their attitudes and behaviors, and as such can be an effective way to impact social learning. My hope is that the work I do addresses the critical matter of helping kids grow up healthy and safe in the 21st century. I strive not to give into the agenda of any “side” in the discussion, and instead speak to the facts while recognizing the perspective of all stakeholders (industry, parents, academics). Currently, I work with the national non-profit Common Sense Media and am an assistant adjunct professor at UCLA; I also frequently speak to a variety of audiences as well as consult for companies. Most importantly, I am the mom of two digital teens, a boy and a girl.
