Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $V$ be a completely reducible faithful $G$-module. By a result of Glauberman it has been known for a long time that if $G$ is nilpotent of class 2, then $|G| < |V|$. In this paper we generalize this result as follows. Assuming $G$ to be solvable, we show that the order of the maximal class 2 quotient of $G$ is strictly bounded above by $|V|$.
