The Green Bay Packers are a professional American football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers have competed in the National Football League (NFL) since 1921, two years after their original founding by Curly Lambeau and George Whitney Calhoun. They are members of the Northern Division of the National Football Conference (NFC) and play their home games at Lambeau Field in central Wisconsin. There have been 15 head coaches for the Packers, however, Willard Ryan and Joseph Hoeffel both served as the head coach in name in the early 1920s. Lambeau is recognized as the first head coach though because in the early years of professional football, team captains (Lambeau's early title) called the plays, talked to the players and performed the duties that are done today by head coaches.

Lambeau, as the Packers first coach, led the team for almost 30 years until he resigned in 1949 after a falling out with the executive leadership of the Packers. During his time as head coach, Lambeau secured six NFL championships (1929, 1930, 1931, 1936, 1939, and 1944) and won almost two-thirds of his games. Lambeau is still the Packers' leader in years as head coach (29), regular season games coached (334), wins (209) and (104) losses. After Lambeau's resignation, the Packers entered a fifteen-year period of poor results on the field under the leadership of head coaches Gene Ronzani, Lisle Blackbourn and Ray McLean. Prior to his tenure as head coach during the 1958 NFL season, McLean and Hugh Devore served as interim head coaches for the last two games of the 1953 NFL season after Ronzani resigned. McLean led the Packers to their worst season by winning percentage and total wins, going 1–10–1 for a winning percentage of .125 in 1958. Combined with his two games as interim head coach in 1953, McLean also has the lowest winning percentage of any Packers head coach (.077). The Packers fortunes turned around with the hiring of head coach Vince Lombardi in 1959. Lombardi would go on to lead the Packers for nine seasons, winning five championships (1961, 1962, 1965, 1966, and 1967) and winning almost three-fourths of his games coached. Lombardi also holds the Packers' record for highest regular season and postseason winning percentage (.746 and .900 respectively).

After Lombardi resigned from coaching in 1967, the Packers again languished, this time for almost 25 years. From 1968 to 1991, the Packers had five head coaches, none of whom had a winning percentage over .488. The coaches during the 1970s and 1980s included former three Packers who served under Lombardi: Phil Bengtson, the Packers defensive coordinator under Lombardi; Bart Starr, the Packers Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback; and Forrest Gregg, the Packers Hall of Fame offensive lineman. Dan Devine and Lindy Infante served as head coaches during this era, as well. Starting in 1992, the Packers improved their on-field play under two All-Pro quarterbacks: Brett Favre from 1992 to 2007 and Aaron Rodgers from 2008 to 2022. Favre's rise coincided with the hiring of Mike Holmgren in 1992. Holmgren and Favre led the Packers to back-to-back Super Bowls, winning Super Bowl XXXI during the 1996 NFL season. After Holmgren left for the Seattle Seahawks, Ray Rhodes was hired for one season and then promptly fired. Mike Sherman was then hired in 2000, serving for five years as head coach, leading the Packers to four playoff berths. After a 4–12 finish in 2005, Sherman was fired and Mike McCarthy was hired. McCarthy served as head coach for thirteen seasons, leading the Packers to nine playoff berths and a victory in Super Bowl XLV during the 2010 NFL season. After a loss to the Arizona Cardinals during the 2018 NFL season, the Packers fired McCarthy and assistant coach Joe Philbin served as interim head coach for the last four games of the season. After the season ended, the Packers hired Matt LaFleur as the 15th and current head coach of the team. LaFleur has led the Packers to four playoff berths during his tenure, including becoming the first head coach in NFL history to lead their team to three straight seasons of 13 wins or more.

Both Lambeau and Lombardi were inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in recognition of their contributions as coaches (Lambeau was also recognized for his years playing in the NFL). Bart Starr and Forrest Gregg were also inducted into the Hall of Fame, although they were recognized for their contributions as players, not coaches. Four coaches have been recognized as coach of the year by major news organizations: Lombardi in 1959 and 1961, Devine in 1972, Infante in 1989 and McCarthy in 2011. The 15 head coaches of the Packers have led the team to numerous records, including the most regular season wins (799) and the most championships (13) by a team in NFL history.
