Global leadership board

The GLB develops and drives the execution of the global strategy. It is a full time management group dedicated to leading the global organisation in the successful execution of the strategy. The GLB is comprised of:

In addition to the three global service line leaders – assurance, tax and advisory services – in 2010 two new roles were added to the GLB: global leader - markets and global leader - business development & client service.

A critical role of the GLB is to work with member firms in driving the execution of the Grant Thornton global strategy. This strategy has four key priorities, in addition to the overarching objective of quality in everything we do:

  • fast and strategic growth
  • distinctive client service
  • best people
  • efficient operations


Implementation of the strategy will build on strategic frameworks, prioritised investments and growth strategies that are appropriate for our chosen markets.
