Our Origin
GR3 began where most firms end:
After twenty years at the table with Fortune 500 boards, founders, and visionaries.
After decades of hard-won lessons—on the front lines of change, in the silent spaces between decisions, and in the relentless pursuit of excellence.
We came together because we saw what was missing:
A place where leaders could bring their whole selves—mind, body, ambition, and doubt—and
be met with both unflinching honesty and unwavering support.
We are the integration of three rare disciplines:
Strategic Clarity and Somatic Leadership: Coaching and Mentoring for the 1%
VirtuosoCEO’s Transformative Executive Programs
The Living Intentionally Life Method for Fulfillment and Peak Performance.
GR3 stands for Grit,
Grace and Grounded.
Grit: The resilience that comes from experience, not theory.
Grace: The art of leading with presence, not just power.
Grounded: The wisdom to lead with deep integrity, even in the face of adversity.
Our clients don’t need generic advice—they want bespoke partnership, forged from synergistic expertise and lived results.
We built GR3 to be that place.
A sanctuary and a crucible, where transformation is inevitable and high performance is embodied.
This is our origin.
This is your invitation.

Beyond Satisfaction: The Art of "Deliver +1"
Previously, we dove into the art of discovering what your customers really want. Today, let's elevate your customer service to the "Deliver +1" stratosphere. Think of it as the magic formula for transforming ordinary service into a legendary experience. And don’t worry, the juicy secrets of the "1% Rule" are coming up next week—because who doesn’t love a little suspense?
Consistency is your secret weapon in the quest for extraordinary customer service. If you aim to turn satisfied customers into Raving Fans, you need to transcend the ordinary. Here’s how you can do it:
Streamline Your Service Offerings
It’s tempting to offer every service under the sun, but too many options can blur your focus. Instead, narrow it down to one or two standout techniques that make you the trendsetter of your industry. Let AI be your partner in crime, helping you streamline offerings while still dazzling your customers.
Perfect the Basics Before Adding New Features
Before rolling out the latest and greatest, ensure your existing systems are flawless. Adding new initiatives without fixing current ones is like trying to install a jet engine on a bike—it’s not going to fly. Use AI to pinpoint and smooth out bottlenecks, ensuring everything runs like a well-oiled machine.
Build Rock-Solid Systems
With your standout offerings selected, create a system that delivers consistently. This means having a dream team in place, supported by technology that promises a seamless experience every time. AI can be your crystal ball, offering predictive analytics to anticipate customer needs and boost satisfaction.
Train Like a Pro
Once your system is set, equip your team to use it like masters. Proper training ensures your staff delivers the customer experience of their dreams. And remember, a little appreciation can make everything sparkle—consider it the cherry on top of your service sundae. We all need to use AI to ‘improve’ what we create. You can tailor training to keep your team sharp and unified.
I hope this gives you a glimpse into crafting a top-notch customer service system. If you’re feeling the pressure, don’t hesitate to reach out. I’ve got a treasure chest of resources, tools, and coaching to guide you to customer service greatness. Let’s make “Deliver +1” not just a concept—but your new gold standard.
