Our Purpose
Gro & Co Coaching
Chis Groeber is dedicated to guiding professionals through challenges, uncovering their strengths, and fostering positive transformations. Groeber Consulting, LLC doing business as Gro & Co is borne out of thirty-five years of working in human services in both the public and private sectors. Its DNA comes from important concepts like Social Entrepreneurship, Building Social Capital, Collective Impact and Values based Practice models. The quote “if you do what you’ve always done you’ll get what you’ve always gotten,” resonates so true in our current models of caring for vulnerable populations. Chris believes we must think about things differently, try new approaches and do it all from a clearly defined set of values. Whether it’s individual coaching, facilitation of Boards, mission/vision re-creation, program development, staff and stakeholder training or just brainstorming, Gro & Co stands ready to think differently with you. Gro and Co quite simply seeks “to help those that help others” and maximize the collective potential.

“Chris Groeber has the rare capability of leading groups in creative problem-solving while challenging and encouraging individuals to share new ideas. He is able to simulate ‘out of the box’ and ‘blue sky’ into action steps that actually solve problems that others would not begin to tackle. I have worked with Chris on multiple state projects and used his expertise while serving in large and small, public and private organizations. Success in seemingly insurmountable situations has always been the result!”
