Groops is a workforce technology platform that helps virtual teams deepen connection and cohesion so they feel better, perform better, and stay longer. We bring experts in group psychology to the office on an affordable subscription basis. We work with teams across the organization. We are different than coaching, and land between L&D and wellness. We teach psychology-based, core content in high cohesion, high performing teams and help the team or leaders integrate the learnings over the course of the year. All of our Groop Guides have an advanced degree in psychology. Deep connection and cohesion are built over time. Why? We are hardwired for connection, yet we are living and working in the most disconnected era in modern history. Employees are stressed, disengaged and leaving in record numbers, costing U.S. organizations $406 billion every year in low productivity, high turnover and poor wellbeing. Founded in 2021 by Dr. Bobbi Wegner, a health psychologist who teaches corporate leaders in the organizational psychology program at Harvard, Groops is uniquely focused on harnessing the power of group connection to help colleagues build better working relationships so they can feel and do their best, together. Everything Groops offers is delivered through a simple platform that makes program planning, employee activation, and tracking outcomes easy for organizations doing the transformational work of putting their people first to boost motivation, engagement, retention, and wellbeing. We provide data-driven feedback and recommendations for both the team and organization in real time allowing you to flex with your people. After just one Groops series, we see increases in all Connection Domains with the most notable changes in connection, belonging, and retention (8-18%). We have a satisfaction score of 100 with program leads and 92 with participating employees. We’re building a more connected future of work. Join us.
