GAME CHANGING LEADERSHIP

CUSTOMIZED SOLUTIONS FOR YOUR BUSINESS

GAME CHANGING LEADERSHIP

At Barnowl Advisory Group, we believe leadership isn’t about titles—it’s about behavior, impact, and the ability to create momentum.

Our Game-Changing Leadership programs are built for modern teams navigating real challenges: growth, change, burnout, retention, and culture drift. We go beyond theory to deliver practical, human-first leadership development that transforms how organizations lead from the inside out.

What sets our approach apart?

Values-Driven, Not Cookie-Cutter: Every engagement is tailored to your company’s culture and mission—not pulled from a dusty playbook.


Field-Tested & Results-Oriented: We focus on behavior change, not buzzwords. Our clients see stronger communication, more accountability, and higher-performing teams.


Multi-Level Design: Whether you’re developing first-time managers, senior leaders, or your entire field leadership team, we meet them where they are—with programs that resonate and stick.


Real Talk, Real Tools: Our sessions combine coaching, facilitation, and straight talk that cuts through the noise. Leaders walk away with tools they’ll use immediately—not just notes they’ll forget.

 

This isn’t just leadership development—it’s leadership transformation.

Let us help you build the kind of leaders people want to follow. Because when leadership gets better, everything gets better.

 

 

Testimonials

“The Barnowl Advisory Groups expertise, know-how and leadership in our talent management efforts provided the exact support our executive team was seeking as part of our ongoing commitment to building our most important asset – our people.”

Shawn Seaman, Chief Operating Officer, Wise Construction

“I have worked with members of the Barnowl team for many years. When we founded RISE, they were the first people I thought of to help us. They worked closely with the principals of the firm to help us shape our organization. Their team seamlessly hit the ground running for our fast moving and growing organization at RISE, quickly establishing himself as a builder and leader of our initial people infrastructure. Their impactful HR consulting work set the critical foundation for our continued growth, work that included the identification, sourcing and onboarding of RISE’s first VP of People and Culture. Barnowl will always be considered a trusted advisor for the RISE team!”

James Grossmann – Founder, CEO – RISE Construction Management

“As a small nonprofit we operate without a formal HR department. Yet we have doubled our staff in the past three years. Amy came to us at a critical time as we needed to update some of our policies and procedures and establish stronger engagement with our staff. Amy’s expertise in human resources management helped us to modernize our performance review process. In addition, she provided a broad assessment of our talent management approach and offered suggestions on how to improve a variety of areas. She helped us develop and disseminate our first employee survey and provided guidance on how to implement the outcomes from the survey. Finally, she provided training for mid-level managers and served as a valuable sounding board for individual personnel situations as they appeared to help us mitigate risk. We were fortunate to have Amy as part of the ICIC team.”

Matt Camp, President and COO, ICIC

“Sometimes the simplest of concepts have the most capacity to enact change. Amy’s insightful look into the inner workings of teams, through the lens of Tuckman’s Stages of Group Development, is powerful. An athlete, a human resources professional, a mother, and a leader, Amy’s approach to transforming “teams” into high performing groups is logical, relatable, and actionable. She’s given us the blue print, and we are ready to execute.”

Lisa Wexler, President, Elaine Construction

“Amy’s expertise and experience as a human resources practitioner were invaluable during the design and launch of our performance management process. In particular, Amy’s work to move from concept to an actionable plan differentiate her as a partner.”

David J. DeFilippo, Ed.D., Chief Learning Officer, Suffolk Construction

“In 2015-2016 our company experienced tremendous growth both in Dealership locations and employee headcount. With that growth, we were challenged with being culturally consistent and ensuring a positive employee experience across the organization.

Amy came on board to advise us on how to create an HR function and on how to successfully manage our challenges. She mentored me and my executive team, introduced a tool to identify our “top talent” and develop them to be the best they can be on the job. She added tremendous value by re-writing our Employee Handbook, and turning it into a document that represented our core values and why people would want to work here. The on-boarding program she developed has been terrific in closing and engaging top new talent in their first 30 days.

Amy has become a key member of the Best Automotive team and I look forward to our continued work with her.”

Scott Shulman, President, Best Automotive
