Meet Craig Greiwe: Chief Strategy Officer R&C PMK and Co-Founder, Rise Together LA

We had the good fortune of connecting with Craig Greiwe and we’ve shared our conversation below. Hi Craig, how has your background shaped the person you are today? Although I’m a nearly-native Angeleno of 20 years, I grew up in rural Indiana, surrounded on three sides by cornfields and the fourth side, by a dirt road and a forest. Poverty wasn’t just a news headline, it was a profoundly personal and real experience. I know the feeling of standing in the grocery store, trying to find the sandwich that had a little more meat in it so that I could split it in half to eat across two days instead of one. I know hunger pains, and desperation. The choice between food and clothing. The need to work full time as soon as the law would allow, or even before. Why does that matter? Because every choice, every dollar, every decision mattered. Even the tiniest mistake could spell doom in the form of hunger, missed rent, or a car repair beyond reach. I became thoughtful and careful because I had to. I made bold decisions because I had to. I was kind because no one was kind to me. I believed in what I said, and I tried to do the right thing because life was hard, and you didn’t need to make it harder. And I carried that same thoughtful, careful, ethical approach to life with me as I grew up. Now, although I’m a senior executive in my field, I have a comfortable income, and I no longer face desperate choices, I am still the same person. I am thoughtful, bold, and careful. I am empathetic and kind. I am focused on the needs of others and how we meet them with innovation. “It’s too hard,” is never a response when trying to solve a problem. And for that, I am a better businessman, better marketer, and better person. Growing up in desperation made me understand that all the choices we make, and how they impact others, matter.
