Leading the Force: Chief Matt Grochow on Modern Policing, Leadership, and Life in the Spotlight
In this episode of Strength from Service, we sit down with Chief Matt Grochow of the St. Peter Police Department. From undercover operations to leading a department in today’s high-pressure climate, Matt brings honest insight into the world of law enforcement.
We talk about what drew him into policing, what it’s really like to be a chief in a small town, how leadership shapes culture, and how Minnesota’s new cannabis laws are affecting departments. He also shares stories from his time working undercover—and his unexpected experience being on a TV show.
This one is packed with perspective, humor, and hard-earned lessons from a lifetime of service.
