I have been a student and practitioner of personal leadership and organizational development since my mid-20’s when I started Golden Eagle Leadership in 1982. During those early years I was honored to work with hundreds of management teams to help them improve their performance, productivity, sales, and profitability. For these results I earned Leadership Management Inc.’s prestigious President’s Club Award
Due to family circumstances, I put my leadership development business on hold to help run our family’s business alongside my brothers. Barkett Fruit Company, Inc. was a wholesale fresh produce distributor based in Dover, OH. Barkett Fruit was founded by my grandfather and great grandfather in 1924. We sold Barkett Fruit in 2015, and after assisting with the transition, I re-opened my business as Barkett Leadership Group.
