How I Work

The truth is, innovation is not enough. Every promising product and service needs mission critical objectives, achievable outcomes, real-world strategies, and a compelling narrative.

I work as an architect and steward for the brand, recruiting and leading teams that share a performance driven mindset. The method is customer-centric, the goals are data driven, and the results are enterprise wide. It’s about maximizing potential. Whatever the next level is, that’s where we’re going.

My Story

I am a visionary Go-To-Market and product leader with over 20 years of experience transforming and scaling Enterprise B2B technology businesses. Throughout my career at Oracle, SAP, VMware, Turntide, and Craft, I have driven innovation, repositioned brands, integrated acquisitions, and led high-performing teams ranging from 25 to 200 professionals. My passion lies in aligning brand, product, and GTM strategies to fuel high-impact growth. I’ve had the privilege of scaling SAP Analytics to over $2B, SAP Hana to $500M, and VMware IoT and Edge to $50M+.

With deep expertise in AI/ML, SaaS, Edge to Cloud Infrastructure, and ClimateTech, I have built groundbreaking GTM programs, launched industry-recognized products, and expanded market reach across Public Sector, Manufacturing, Retail, Healthcare, Financial Services, and Energy. One of my proudest achievements was leading Turntide AI Sustainability from $27M to $120M+ and spearheading SAP’s Executive Briefing Center on wheels, generating $200M+ in revenue.

Honored with VMware’s Top Talent Award and recognized as one of Enterprise IT’s Leading Women in Tech, I thrive on building category-defining businesses. I bring strategic vision, operational excellence, and a passion for fostering innovation-driven success.

Beyond my professional work, I enjoy mentoring future leaders and exploring emerging technologies. I am available for board memberships and advisory roles and am committed to shaping the next generation of industry pioneers.

Mimi in Action Through the Years

Mimi took the stage as a panelist at Procurement and Supply Chain Live in London, discussing effective strategies to mitigate disruptions, enhance visibility, and foster a resilient supply chain.

Mimi Spier is one of the most results driven, creative, and strategic GTM leaders I have worked with. I had the pleasure to work with Mimi first at SAP in the Analytics business and then I recruited her to run marketing at Turntide Technologies when I was the Chief Product Officer. Mimi has a remarkable ability to blend strategic market vision, data driven decision making with deep product insight. At Turntide we acquired 6 companies in 6 months and Mimi re-defined our corporate positioning, aligned the marketing execution and execution across teams, and created a compelling GTM strategy that was crucial in driving our brand forward and achieving 5+x pipeline across business units. Mimi’s leadership style fosters collaboration across teams. Mimi was a critical aid in raising an additional $400M in funding. I’m grateful for the opportunity to work along side such a skilled and forward-thinking leader.
