Mike Ladd

Mike Ladd is a growth strategist, operator, and entrepreneur who helps early-stage and scaling companies evolve from founder-dependent execution into disciplined, repeatable growth organizations. He is widely respected for his ability to replace individual heroics with scalable systems, building the leadership structure, accountability models, and revenue engines required for durable, long-term performance.

Mike's perspective is shaped by having co-founded EnablePath, a Salesforce systems integration firm focused on complex CRM and enterprise application implementations. Under his leadership, EnablePath grew into one of the world's leading Salesforce partners before being successfully acquired in 2014 by Birlasoft, part of the CK Birla Group. Since then, Mike has advised numerous venture- and private-equity-backed companies as they navigate rapid expansion, operational complexity, and rising performance expectations, with a focus on sales productivity, go-to-market strategy, and revenue team alignment.

In addition to his advisory work, Mike remains an active business owner, including ownership in a distribution and manufacturing company, giving him a deeply grounded operator's perspective on the realities of scaling across industries. Based in Charlotte, North Carolina, he works closely with founders and executive teams committed to transforming growth momentum into sustainable, system-driven performance.
