For Professional Advisers
The best advisers know the real issue is rarely the presenting one.
GLAS gives you the methodology to go deeper - with your clients, and within your own firm.
The GLAS Method®
What professional advisers bring. What GLAS adds.
Legal advice structures ownership. Accountancy models the numbers. Wealth management protects assets. All of it is essential. But none of it reaches the layer that determines whether any of that advice actually sticks.
The human operating system underneath a business — how decisions are really made, how the family dynamic shapes the boardroom, how leadership holds together under pressure — is where the real leverage sits. It is also where most advisers cannot go, not because they lack insight, but because they lack a structured methodology to take their clients there.
GLAS is that methodology.
It gives you a structured, proven way to surface what is actually driving your clients' businesses — across identity, purpose, relationships, leadership, activity, external impact and motivation. It opens the conversations that matter most, creates deeper trust, and positions you as the adviser who understands the whole picture, not just the transaction.
The result is not just better advice. It is a more valuable, more durable client relationship — one that generates more work, more referrals and more loyalty over time.
-

Identity
01
Help your clients understand who they are as a business — beneath the brand and the strategy. When identity is clear, the advice you give lands on solid ground rather than shifting assumptions. -

Relate
02
Surface the relational dynamics shaping your clients' decisions - trust, boundaries, communication and the unspoken rules that govern how the family or leadership team actually operates. The conversations most advisers never have. -

Activity & Results
03
Connect your clients' day-to-day activity to their strategic priorities — so effort converts consistently and the advice you give translates into visible, evidenced progress. -

External Impact
04
Help clients understand how their actions land with stakeholders, clients and communities - and how external pressures are shaping their decisions. Advice that accounts for this is advice that holds. -

Purpose
05
Anchor your clients' decisions to their deeper why - the direction that holds across generations, transitions and market changes. Purpose-led advice is the most trusted advice. -

Leading
06
Strengthen how your clients make and hold decisions - governance, strategy, accountability and the leadership culture that determines whether everything else works. The foundation for every other conversation. -

Motivation
07
Understand what drives the people behind the business - and what is quietly draining them. When motivation is understood rather than assumed, client relationships become significantly more honest and significantly more productive.
Two ways to work with GLAS
Professional advisers engage with GLAS in two distinct ways — and many do both.
As a partner — we work alongside you
Where your strategy and your clients' strategy align, we work with you directly — running the GLAS Orientation, Blueprint and coaching alongside your existing advisory relationship. Your client gets a deeper, more human experience. You get a stronger brief, a more aligned client, and advice that lands on a clearer foundation. This is the most immediate route in — and the one that generates the most visible impact in the shortest time.
As a trained practitioner — you embed GLAS in your practice
For advisers who want to make GLAS a permanent part of how they work, we offer structured training programmes that give you the methodology, tools and language to use GLAS directly with your clients. From an introductory session to a full twelve-month programme, you develop a genuinely distinctive offering — one no other adviser in your market is likely to have.
Ready to go deeper with your clients?
We start with a conversation — about your practice, the clients you serve, and whether GLAS is the right fit. Whether you want to partner with us, train in the method or explore what a white-label approach might look like, the conversation starts here.
-
A practical, focused introduction to the GLAS Method® — what it is, how it works, and what it would look like in your practice. Designed for accountants, lawyers, wealth managers and other professional advisers who want a clear picture before committing to deeper training. No jargon, no theory. Just a honest conversation about whether GLAS is the right fit.
-
A cohort-based programme that gives you the methodology, tools and confidence to use GLAS directly with clients — particularly family businesses and privately owned businesses navigating growth, transition or succession. You will learn to run the Orientation process, facilitate Blueprint conversations, and use the seven elements to open deeper, more productive client dialogue. Everything you learn applies both with clients and within your own firm.
-
A year-long qualification for advisers who want to make GLAS a defining part of their practice. You will develop full command of the GLAS Method® — from Orientation through to Blueprint delivery, coaching and ongoing programme design. By the end, you have a structured, distinctive methodology that positions you significantly ahead of the market for family business and private client advisory work. Suitable for accountants, lawyers, wealth managers and consultants who want to go beyond transactional advice into genuine strategic partnership.
-
We work with firms to develop bespoke GLAS-based products and approaches under their own brand — from playbooks and facilitated sessions to full client programmes. If you want to systematise the GLAS methodology across your team or create a distinctive offering for a specific client segment, we will design and develop it with you.

The LEAPERS Club
The Growth Lab for Bold Thinkers
Start With the Taster. Rethink Balance.
The LEAPERS Club is the online platform for the GLAS Method®, created for people who want clarity, not clichés.
If you’ve ever been told to “find work–life balance” and quietly thought, that’s not how this works, you’re in the right place.
Our entry point is simple. Join the community and receive the free Taster Playbook:
Work–Life Balance is BS.
Because balance is not about splitting your life in half. It’s about understanding energy, alignment, and proportion across what matters.
Inside the Taster, you’ll experience the LEAPS structure, Learn, Energy, Action, Processing, Shout Out, and explore how the three states of balance show up in real life: too much, too little, or just enough.
From there, you can choose your path. Stay connected as a Community Member, or
step into a focused Set (general or specialist areas) as a Club Member.
The LEAPERS Club is not about doing more. It is about seeing differently, thinking clearly, and choosing deliberately.
Specialist Sets for Professional Advisors within the Leapers Club are designed for individuals who guide, support, and influence others in their professional roles. These Sets create a structured space to reflect on client relationships, judgement, communication, and the pressures that come with advisory work. By applying Leapers thinking, advisors can strengthen clarity, perspective, and the quality of the guidance they provide.
