Barry Rowan spent his career in C-Suite roles building or turning around eight businesses primarily in the technology and communications space, including one that sold for 10 billion dollars. He is now leveraging that leadership experience into developing people and organizations through serving on boards, writing, speaking and “holistic accompaniment.” With a character-based approach to leadership, Barry served as a division general manager, led two private companies as CEO/President, and has been CFO for four public companies including Fluke Corporation, Nextel Partners, Vonage, and Gogo Inflight. Through these roles he completed over 20 billion dollars in capital markets and M&A transactions, venture capital raises, and multiple comprehensive refinancings. Coming to a surrendered faith out of a crisis of meaning in work, he ultimately developed a transformed perspective of work which animated the last twenty-five years of his career. The power of this experience, the energy it brought to his career, and seeing so many emerging leaders wrestling with the same questions compelled him to write The Spiritual Art of Business: Connecting the Daily with the Divine. Barry earned his M.B.A. from Harvard Business School, and his B.S. summa cum laude in Business Administration and Chemical Biology from The College of Idaho. Barry and his wife Linda are the parents of two married sons and have three young “grands.” He loves experiencing different cultures and has traveled to fifty countries through his business and personal lives. Barry enjoys skiing, hiking, golf, and many other sports, even if it has meant trading in his mountain bike for an e-bike in recent years. Ways Barry can serve you or your organization: • Speaking Engagements • Training Programs • Holistic Formation • Executive Accompaniment • Organizational Consulting
