About Terry Simpson

Founder of Rock Advisory Group, a firm focused on creating and implementing profitable growth strategies. I have over 25 years of experience with strategic planning, operations, business development, people strategy, M&A, geographic expansion and corporate board activity. Utilizing my international network of real estate, construction and professional service firms, I have direct hands-on experience leading and implementing strategic growth initiatives and organizational change. I am a former senior partner and board member of Atwell-Hicks, a past member of the Detroit Regional Chamber’s Board of Advisers, an SMPS Past President and Board of Influence member and former Alumni Control Board President for Delta Sigma Phi. Inspiring the body of Christ through mission work, counseling and preaching is a deep passion of mine. Internationally, I serve as the Vice President of A Light To The Nations, an international group of business minded Christians who perform gospel festivals in Africa, build orphanages in the Ukraine and deliver feeding programs in Mexico. Locally, I serve as the pastor of Bountiful Harvest Food Pantry in Michigan and volunteer with Reaching The Forgotten conducting bible studies to men in the county jail. Specialties: Strategic Planning, Management Consulting, Mergers & Acquisitions, Executive Recruiting, Marketing & Sales
