Armed with strong technical skills but lacking formal business training, he built the company through trial and error, persistence, and continuous transformation. He is the author of The Reluctant Entrepreneur: Anatomy of a Business Start-Up – From Uncertainty to Unstoppable, a candid account of his journey that details the missteps, near-failures, and hard-won lessons that turned an uncertain start-up into a sustainable business. Mike regularly speaks at major universities and business organizations, sharing practical, real-world strategies with the next generation of entrepreneurs and leaders. In addition to his writing and speaking, Mike hosts two podcasts: The Reluctant Entrepreneur Podcast, where he interviews business owners about their own startup and growth journeys, and The Reliability Matters Podcast, which focuses on technical excellence and best practices in the electronics industry.
