Rob Grubka,President, Voya Financial Group’s Employee Benefits
Originally connected with Carlson Group as part of Voya’s continuous improvement initiative, my relationship with the company grew as I moved into a role as President of a business line. While I’ve had many transitions over my career, Carlson Group’s personalized and excellent coaching helped me navigate the transition and led me to more effective problem-solving approaches.
