About
Hi, I'm George Stern.
In 2024, I began sharing practical growth tips online to help people thrive at work and in life. And things took off fast.
Now, I feel lucky to have 340,000+ high performers in our Growth That Matters family. I am passionate about helping each of them build a life they don't need a vacation from.
And wherever you are in your career or life, I'd love to help you, too.
The tips and strategies I share come from my experience as:
✔ A growth coach for dozens of top-performing leaders, managers, and individual contributors
✔ The founder and CEO of a company that buys, grows, and advises small businesses
✔ A former McKinsey consultant, where I advised Fortune 500 executives
✔ A Harvard Law graduate
✔ And a former elected official, where I led a large agency, won 4 national innovation awards, and was featured on 60 Minutes
When I'm not working, I am proud to be a dad and husband, and a volunteer firefighter.
My family and I live at 9,000' in the Colorado Rockies, and we try to spend as much time outside in the mountains as we possibly can.
