About B. Pagels Minor
I believe in mutual accountability and scalable processes that allow teams to do the work well and evolve with technology. You can find me dishing out real talk via their podcast or blog on why product strategy is about scaling with intention. B. traveled from Mississippi to Chicago to Silicon Valley and now Los Angeles for over a decade, producing products that shifted the culture for Fortune 500 brands, including Apple and Netflix. With an MBA and MIS and an undergraduate degree from Northwestern University, my approach to every problem consists of strategy, curiosity, and genuine authenticity as a product strategist and leads with empathy and radical candor in every consultation. Named 40 Under 40 by Silicon Valley Business Journal. B. Pagels-Minor is on a mission to help companies create sustainable solutions. My credentials do the talking, but my record is nothing to play with, nor is my trivia facts knowledge. Folks say I am a captivating and inspiring speaker, a fierce advocate for those from historically underinvested communities, and a thought leader on product and culture development within big tech—naturally, I am also first to the tech news and toys. I love building community, promoting diversity in tech, and prioritizing giving back to organizations like Howard Brown Health, rooted in LGBTQ liberation, and the YWCA of Metropolitan Chicago on their board of directors.
