Executive and leadership coaching
ABOUT CAROL
Not the expert.
The one who leads.
I’ve often been the generalist in rooms full of specialists. I became Head of Buying at Halfords at 28, later led Halfords Autocentres and went on to lead the TT Races. I’ve never ridden a motorbike.

I’m Carol Glover, a senior executive and leadership coach who spent 40 years from C-suite to chief executive, often as the only woman in the room in male-dominated industries.
I now work with brilliant leaders, experts and specialists who, as they step up, begin to doubt themselves and their authority. “What if I can’t do this and they find out?” is a thought that often goes through their heads, and that’s where I come in.
We co-create the mindset, range and self-belief they need to think differently, lead boldly and bring people with them.
People call me the Maverick Maker because in an AI world we don’t need more machines. We need brave humans who know what to do when they don’t know what to do. Enabling that is the bit I do.
THE MAVERICK MAKER®
There’s more inside people than they know.
Across 15 industries, I learned to help people see more, think for themselves and contribute fully. I saw what people could do when they had room to question an old answer or try something different.
I created Human Frontier Thinking® to name something I’ve seen throughout my career. There’s more inside people than they know, especially when familiar answers stop working.
I’m a world-class coach with four decades of leadership experience. As The Maverick Maker®, I work with leaders across the world, drawing on my experience in leadership development and positive psychology.
Ever wondered how authentic you are as a leader?
People tell leaders to “be more authentic.” What does that mean when you feel you have to edit what you say, fit a particular mould or lead like someone else? Explore where you feel able to show up as yourself, and where you may have started to hold back, and what you can do about it.
