About Groove Management LLC

Founded in 2001, Groove Management L.L.C. believes strongly in the concept that individuals and organizations who focus on their strengths are destined to achieve better results than those who constantly work on deficiencies. Through working with a range of employees from executives to front-line managers our team has found that those who can identify their core strengths and leverage those strengths tend to be more successful and more importantly happier at work and in life.

Groove Management was founded to help organizations and individuals to identify their strengths and learn how to leverage those strengths more effectively. We refer to this as "finding your GROOVE". The concept is rooted in the theory of Appreciative Inquiry which was developed in the mid 1980s. The original 1987 article by David Cooperrider and Suresh Srivastva argued that the overuse of problem-solving reduced the ability of managers and researchers to come up with new theories and models for organizing.​ Based on the work around appreciative inquiry, Groove Management has furthered the concept into a consulting approach for executive coaching and organizational development.
