I’m Mikal Lewis. Baltimore-raised, Austin-based. Product executive who’s shipped to 1 billion+ users across Office, Windows, Xbox, Nordstrom, RetailMeNot, Firefox, Amazon/Whole Foods Market and a few startups. Throughout my career I’m approaching a half-billion dollars in measured attributable impact and I’m excited to share my secrets with you.
The first thing you should know about Bold to Win, my product practice, is it takes from my Baltimore roots. Blue collar work ethic, relentless, and patient in the quiet understanding that only difficult things are worth your craft. The job, is to be bold to win—to get up everyday and iterate your way, day by day, to a better opportunity.
Applied to product, you don’t fear your market position or dream of a world without competition—you embrace it. And define winning for your present situation and organize your entire product value-chain to getting there.

That perspective delivered $250M in measured value across roles at Microsoft, Nordstrom, Mozilla and Amazon by paying close attention to what we had and what the industry missed—choosing where to be bold (the easy part) and delivering (the hard part). And that’s just the start.
Any team can do it, if you put in work to work with purpose.
