Damon is an ICF-certified philanthropic coach and advisor, certified nonprofit consultant, certified Working Genius consultant and the founder and Managing Partner of Business of Life Coaching & Consulting (BOLCC), based in Morrisville, North Carolina. With over twenty years of executive nonprofit and philanthropic experience, he has trained more than four thousand people in volunteerism, nonprofit strategy, and philanthropy. Barron is the creator of the G.I.V.E. Model, the Philanthropic Legacy Assessment, and the Philanthropic Equation framework.

A licensed insurance professional, Barron has appeared on television, radio, and podcasts, and is the host of two podcasts that highlight grassroots and corporate philanthropy.

In Giving Up: The Surprising Secret to a Life that Matters, Barron channels two decades of helping donors and organizations give strategically into his first work of fiction. Drawing on his specialty of helping others discover and deploy their philanthropic why, Barron crafted a story designed to reach readers who may never pick up a traditional business book but who carry that same quiet question inside them. Giving Up is the first book in the Giving Up Series and his second published work.

Barron is a Rotarian and serves on the Board for the Chamber of Commerce. His first book, Monday Morning Manner, is what he calls a legacy book, written with his wife and children. When he is not writing or coaching, Barron is spending time with family and friends, reading, traveling, playing pickleball, golf, disc golf, watching movies, interviewing people on his podcast or serving in his local church.
