Glyn joined Shirlaws in January 2004 having previously directed his own executive coaching company.  He balances his client work with his responsibilities as our UK CEO.

A business graduate with more than twenty years' experience in commercial roles, Glyn began his career in the public and banking sectors before joining one of the world's largest family run businesses - Mars (now Masterfoods). His first role was selling pet food and, occasionally, tasting it! Glyn specialised in revenue generation, developing new products and sales propositions across Europe whilst managing Sales, Training, Marketing and Client Services functions. He also developed and led the Mars business in Ukraine from start-up to a multi-million dollar operation, gaining great insight into how a strong internal culture can be utilised to drive success. During his time at Mars he increased his knowledge of the behavioural sciences and gained certification as a Master Practitioner in NLP.

Upon returning to the UK Glyn set up his own coaching business, which integrated with Shirlaws in 2004. Having coached and worked in businesses comprising of 4 to 40,000 employees he is a self confessed "generalist" who enjoys "growing businesses and people".

Married "with two grown up loan accounts", an avid rugby fan and fair weather golfer, he lives in the Thames Valley close to the picturesque town of Henley on Thames.
