About Dominique Levin
I challenge the status quo in business and in life. I alternate seven years of hard work with a (family) sabbatical. Seven years ago, I studied positive psychology, volunteered for the Society of Environmental Journalism and took the kids on a two-months road trip across the USA. In our second, most recent, sabbatical I homeschooled our kids while traveling the world (www.worldtripfamily.com) and taking online writing classes. For fun, I participated in the first-ever European Ice-Hockey Championships for women and I set up a cooperative for local farmers in Cusco, Peru. My latest #passionproject is to create a collection of stories about people who redefine success https://www.instagram.com/recountingsuccess/. For work, as a venture capitalist, CEO, and CMO, I created over $800 million in shareholder value, while also helping to define and create new categories for log management, customer success, and predictive marketing (I published www.predictivemarketingbook.com with Wiley). I currently run my own firm (www.winningbydesign.com) with fellow optimist Jacco van der Kooij. I am also looking to #leanin more by taking board positions. I believe that B2B sales is undergoing a major data-driven revolution, turning the profession from an art into a science. Along the way, more people will be able to access the decent wages of tech sales jobs. In fact, I would love to find organizations we can partner with to train underprivileged communities in B2B sales (development).
