    Michael Cerdá - Executive Product Advisor of Build Something
    2025/06/24
    Welcome to another episode of the Business Leaders of America podcast. In this episode, I sit down with Michael Cerdá, a visionary builder behind some of the most iconic digital products of our time. From launching Disney+ to over 100 million subscribers, to helping build the Apple Card and Marcus platform at Goldman Sachs, to transforming TelevisaUnivision into a global streaming powerhouse with Vix, Michael has consistently built category-defining products at massive scale. We explore his earlier work at Facebook, and how each chapter taught him something different about culture, leadership, and execution. We dive into what it really takes to lead inside high-stakes environments, where bold ideas must be matched by world-class execution, and how emotional intelligence, cultural alignment, and purposeful leadership separate good teams from great ones. If you're looking to understand what it takes to build products and companies that truly last, this episode is a masterclass in doing just that.
