Hi, I’m Glenn - MD, owner and lead trainer at Gherkin Associates. Thanks for taking the time to visit, and for making it this far through the website.

​

I spent much of my career in the corporate world, eventually working my way up to Executive Board Director. I’ve worked with businesses large and small, across the private and public sectors, led teams and worked with people all over the world.

​

But I didn’t always get leadership right.

​

I got results.

I was driven.

I pushed hard.

​

Looking back though, I can see there was sometimes a cost.

 

I was often more focused on driving and controlling than creating the conditions for people to think for themselves, take responsibility and be at their best.

 

I wish I’d understood then what I understand now.

 

My own experience of Personal Leadership fundamentally changed the way I thought about leadership - and, more importantly, the way I showed up as a leader, colleague, husband, dad and friend.

​

Today, as an Associate Partner of the Living Leader, I combine that learning with decades of real-world leadership experience to help other people discover it for themselves.

​

Because Personal Leadership isn't just about becoming a better leader at work. It's about becoming better at leading yourself - wherever you are and whoever you're with.

​

I often say Personal Leadership Training can change lives.  I know that’s a bold claim, but I’m comfortable making it - ​Because understanding Personal Leadership changed mine.
