James Glover

He/him

Human performance coach and purpose strategist ​

The most meaningful leadership transformations start within.​ James Glover creates the space and challenge for senior leaders to re-examine who they are beneath the role and rebuild their impact from a place of self-worth and deep clarity. He’s not your typical keynote speaker. Before founding The Excitable Soul, James spent three Olympic cycles in elite sport, supporting medal- winning athletes. Over two decades, he’s worked with leaders at Shell, Sky, and Goldman Sachs, always focused on the person behind the performance.​

​
What he’s discovered is simple but radical: The most powerful leaders lead from the inside out. Today, James works with those ready to pause, reflect, and reconnect with what truly matters. His approach blends Olympic-level rigour with soulful human insight, guiding people through transformative work on purpose, identity and emotional connection.​

​
This isn’t about doing more. It’s about stripping things back to what’s real.​ Because when you lead from within, you don’t just deliver results, you change the culture around you.
