WHERE STRATEGY
MEETS STORY.

MEET DOUG ANWEILER


Bellwoods Strategy was founded by Douglas Anweiler, a strategist and senior leader with over three decades of experience helping organizations navigate growth, change, and complexity.

Doug’s career spans the private, non-profit, and public sectors. He has shaped consumer-facing brands, guided start-ups and scale-ups, advised fintech innovators, focused social purpose and patient organizations, and steered communications in competitive political environments.

Across every sector and challenge, the through-line is the same: clarity and alignment turn big ideas into real results.

At Bellwoods, you won’t find consulting hype or off-the-shelf plans. You’ll find practical thinking, honest conversations, and a partner committed to helping you make better decisions and keep your team connected when it matters most.
