How to Succeed by Building Relationships and Playing the Long Game
Book • 2026
David Grutman knows everyone, and everyone—or rather, anyone who’s anyone—knows him.
From a humble start as a 21-year-old bartender at a restaurant in the Aventura Mall to partnering with the owner almost two decades later on a globally recognized nightlife brand, Grutman has transformed the global nightlife and hospitality scene.
His Groot Hospitality properties across Miami, Dallas, and Las Vegas include high-grossing venues like a Japanese-inspired steakhouse with Bad Bunny.
In Take It Personal, he breaks down his core values on building lasting relationships and businesses, including creating ecosystems, focusing on details, playing the long game, and connecting people.
