For more than 30 years, Doug Hood has worked at the intersection of business performance and people—building companies, leading teams, navigating conflict, and helping organizations find a better way forward.

Throughout his career, Doug has worked with hundreds of business owners and ministry leaders. He led an award-winning company through nationwide expansion, eight-figure annual revenue, strategic acquisitions, and ultimately a successful exit to a multibillion-dollar company. He's also experienced setbacks, made mistakes, and learned valuable lessons the hard way.

An entrepreneur who loves building businesses, solving problems, and creating opportunities, Doug is also a shepherd at heart. He genuinely cares about people and has seen firsthand how conflict, confusion, and unhealthy cultures can drain energy, destroy momentum, and hold back even the most talented teams.

Those experiences led him to create Sparke OS™—a practical approach built from decades of real-world experience to help leaders solve problems, restore relationships, and build peaceful, productive teams.
