The Dov Baron Show

“Self-Aware or Self-Deceived? The Values Test That Reveals All” . What if the values you say you lead by are just a story you’ve rehearsed, and not the truth you actually live? 🎁 Bonus Resource: Take the 6-question values diagnostic from Bob’s book: 👉 https://robertglazer.com/six . Official book page: https://robertglazer.com/compass/ . 🧠 In this searing second half of our two-part conversation, Robert Glazer returns to challenge the very foundation most leaders build their reputations on: values. . Bob challenges us to confront a deeply uncomfortable truth: that we may not actually know what your values are. Not because you're dishonest, but because you've never stress-tested them. And neither has your organization. . We break apart the modern performance culture, dissect how compensation can destroy candor, and ask the question no company wants to answer: . Do we reward alignment with our stated values, or just performance metrics that protect the bottom line? This episode pulls no punches. Bob and I get radically honest about: Why stated company website "values" are mostly meaningless (and how to prove it) How to build a Values Dashboard that forces accountability to the things you say matter most The self-delusion test every leader should take, but probably won’t. What happens when your team is A+ on paper but hollow in purpose How Bob learned to fire top performers who didn’t match the values, and never regretted it . This is about more than leadership. It’s about the gap between who you believe you are and how you actually lead. And it’s only when that gap gets closed that real performance, loyalty, and integrity can scale. . 🎙 About Bob Glazer: Robert Glazer is the founder of Acceleration Partners, host of the Elevate Podcast, a multiple-time best-selling author, and the voice behind the Friday Forward newsletter—read by over 200,000 people in 100+ countries. .

Part 1:  📢 “The ‘Values’ Lie Most Leaders Don't Know They’re Living” 🤯 What if everything you claim to stand for… is a lie you never meant to tell? 🎁 Bonus Resource: Take the 6-question values diagnostic from Bob’s book: 👉 https://robertglazer.com/six . Official book page: https://robertglazer.com/compass/ . You say you’re values-driven. You’ve probably even got them printed on a wall or a slide deck. But what if those values—the ones you repeat to your team, your board, and yourself—aren’t actually yours? . What if they’re inherited, performative, or built to impress… not to guide? . In this bold, unflinching conversation, Dov Baron sits down with best-selling author and leadership visionary Bob Glazer to uncover the silent self-deception baked into most leadership identities. . Because here’s the hard truth: You don’t rise to the level of your stated values. You regress to your real ones—especially under pressure. 🔥 In This Episode: The “values lie” silently sabotaging your leadership How to know if your compass is pointing to true north or magnetic delusion Why emotional pain, not aspiration, shapes your fundamental values The single test that reveals if your values are negotiable under fire Shocking: Why “integrity” and “family” are often weaponized, not lived The reason your culture values might be gaslighting your employees How to name, own, and live your non-negotiables with clarity   🎙 About Bob Glazer: Robert Glazer is the founder of Acceleration Partners, host of the Elevate Podcast, a multiple-time best-selling author, and the voice behind the Friday Forward newsletter—read by over 200,000 people in 100+ countries. .

🔥 If you’re so smart, so successful, and so in control… why do your relationships keep blowing up? 📘 Episode Description In Part 2 of this belief rattling conversation, Tim Ash, bestselling author of Unleash Your Primal Brain, rips the curtain back on the uncomfortable truth that most elite leaders refuse to face: . Your rational mind is not in control—your primal brain is. Especially when it comes to love, lust, and long-term relationships. . You’ll learn why: Most dating behavior is a neural con—driven by ancient evolutionary imperatives, not conscious choice The same brain that makes you a business killer may be the reason you keep wrecking intimacy Oxytocin, trust, and mate selection are part of a primal system that doesn’t care about your rational goals Monogamy is a biological outlier, and acknowledging that could save your marriage The deeper reason self-control fails, even for high performers Why the illusion of “free will” in love is both liberating and terrifying . Tim and Dov dive into how modern relationships are wired to fail unless we reprogram our understanding of human nature. This episode isn’t relationship advice, it’s a long hard look in the mirror. If you're bold enough to confront the primal forces that shape who and how you love… press play. 🎯 Who This Episode Is For: Visionary leaders, founders, and CEOs who have succeeded in business but struggle in love Anyone brave enough to ask, “Is it really them—or is it my wiring?” High performers willing to rethink everything they’ve been told about dating, marriage, and monogamy 🧠 Episode Aways: The biological truth behind trust and betrayal Why intelligent people make unintelligent romantic choices A neuroscience-backed lens for decoding your own relationship patterns How to stop blaming your partner and start understanding your brain 🎙 Guest Bio: Tim Ash International keynote speaker, digital marketing pioneer, and author of Unleash Your Primal Brain Expert in evolutionary psychology, behavioral science, and persuasion Helps leaders decode how ancient biology drives modern dysfunction   🎧 Listen now and confront the side of yourself your intellect has been trying to hide.

🎙️ Primal Dating: The Truth About Evolution, Power, and Why Leaders Fail at Love |Tim Ash 🔥 If elite leaders can close billion-dollar deals before lunch, why are so many failing at the most primal negotiation of all, lasting love? 🧠 Episode Summary  Modern dating isn’t broken because people are lazy; it’s broken because our primal operating system is colliding with an unnatural environment. In this unsparing conversation, evolutionary psychology expert Tim Ash dismantles the myths about gender, power, and purpose. . We confront population collapse, the “sexual marketplace,” shadow purpose, and why denying biological asymmetry is wrecking not just relationships, but also leadership and culture! 🧨  What You’ll Learn Why evolutionary psychology is the hidden operating system of every decision you make. How denying male/female asymmetries fuels gender wars and broken partnerships. The “sexual marketplace” explained: why most men are invisible and the top 10% dominate. Why population collapse and inverted age pyramids threaten every economic model. How Tim uses positive and shadow purposes to make life-and-leadership decisions. Why testosterone decline, risk aversion, and cultural overlays cripple modern men. The direct parallel between dating dynamics and executive leadership cultures. 🧬 The Big Questions We Tackle Is civilization sleepwalking into collapse by ignoring biology? Can culture override evolutionary asymmetry, or does denial always backfire? What’s your shadow purpose—and how is it steering your leadership? If most men are invisible, what does that say about competence, risk, and responsibility? Why do middle-aged leaders often fail at relationships just as their careers peak? Why It Matters for Leaders Your primal wiring doesn’t clock out when you walk into the boardroom. Risk, status, provisioning, and belonging drive decisions from mergers to marriages. Understanding this is not optional; it's a matter of survival. Ignore it, and you'll continue to lose trust, culture, and loyalty.  🎙 Guest Bio: Tim Ash Tim Ash is the author of Unleash Your Primal Brain and Primal Dating. He is a leading authority on evolutionary psychology, digital behavior, and neuro-marketing. He’s helped brands like Google, Expedia, and Nestlé understand how the brain really works, and now he’s turning that lens onto the most crucial domain of all: leadership.

Few adults on the planet have not been touched, either directly or indirectly, by cancer. It's one of the things many people see as an inevitable part of life that they hope and pray does not visit directly onto their own life.   But what about the oncologists who work with cancer patients every day? Dr. Azra Raza is a cancer specialist who has dedicated her life to pioneering the understanding of cancer and, most importantly, its earliest detection. Despite the weight of her work, Dr. Raza has never lost sight of her clear intention: to cure cancer. She immigrated to the U.S. from Karachi, Pakistan, and has since been featured in high-profile outlets like The New York Times, The Guardian, The Times, The Smithsonian, and more. She was even invited to the dining room of President Joe Biden's home at the Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C., with a handful of other cancer specialists to offer their perspectives on the current cancer landscape, which contributed to shaping what is now known as the "Cancer Moonshot." Dr. Raza's latest bestselling book, "THE FIRST CELL," is a searing account of how medicine and our society (mis)treat cancer, how we can do better, and why we must. Her life is devoted to early detection and prevention of cancer. Imagine the grief of being an oncologist, working with people 70% of whom you will walk to their death. Dr. Raza has not only watched people die but has also discovered that the love of her life, another oncologist, was diagnosed with untreatable cancer, and she had to walk them through to the end. This would make most of us want to crawl into a hole and never return, but not Dr. Raza. She is a true inspiration to us all and a reminder that one person can make a difference in the fight against cancer.

Part 2 🎙️ “Why Gen Z Doesn’t Want to Work for You (Unless You Fix This)” | Tim Elmore Are today’s young professionals really entitled, lazy, and fragile, or are they calling bullsh**t on leadership that refuses to evolve? 💥 Episode Summary: In Part 2 of this explosive two-part series, Dr. Tim Elmore and Dov Baron rip the lid off one of the most urgent and misunderstood leadership dilemmas of our time: how to lead—and learn from—Generation Z. Forget the tired tropes. Gen Z isn’t disengaged because they lack grit. They’re disengaged because they see through inauthentic leadership, misaligned values, and outdated management structures. In this episode, Elmore and Dov Baron break down why legacy leadership models are breaking down, how Gen Z is redefining work and influence, and what today’s leaders must do to stay relevant in a world where authority is earned—not inherited. You’ll discover how emotional intelligence, psychological safety, and trust-building have become non-negotiables for a generation that won't settle for performative values or empty mission statements. If you’ve ever asked, “Why can’t we just get them to work harder?” This conversation is a mirror you can’t afford to look away from.   🔥 In This Episode, You’ll Learn: Why the leadership playbook that built your success will fail you with Gen Z. The hidden reason Gen Z sees your workplace as a threat, not an opportunity. How "drip irrigation", not fire hosing, builds real buy-in with young talent. The neuroscience of how Gen Z processes trust and influence (and why your authority triggers resistance). Why control and shame-based tactics kill motivation in this new era. How servant leadership and co-creation are no longer “nice to haves,” they’re survival skills. 🧠 About our Guest: Dr. Tim Elmore is the best-selling author of “A New Kind of Diversity” and founder of Growing Leaders, an organization that helps elite leadership teams develop emotionally intelligent and culturally relevant practices. His decades of research and fieldwork make him one of the world’s foremost authorities on generational leadership and the evolving psychology of influence.   📌 💬 Join the Conversation: Do you believe Gen Z is entitled, or are they exposing a more profound leadership crisis?

🎙️ "Why Gen Z Is NOT Broken, But Our Leadership Might Be" | Tim Elmore . Are you leading the future—or losing it? . In this explosive episode of The Dov Baron Show, we pull the curtain back on one of the most misunderstood generations in history and the leaders who are failing to connect with them. . Dr. Tim Elmore, best-selling author of A New Kind of Diversity, and his new book: "The Future Begins with Z: Nine Strategies to Lead Generation Z as They Disrupt the Workplace." He’s the founder of Growing Leaders. Today, he joins Dov to confront the uncomfortable truth: most leaders are leading Gen Z using tools built for a world that no longer exists. . If you’ve ever said: “Why don’t they want to work like we did?” “Why are they so anxious, so soft, so… entitled?” “How do I inspire loyalty without lowering standards?” . Then buckle up. Because what you're about to hear will challenge your assumptions, expose hidden generational biases, and equip you with the mindset and skills to lead, not lose this rising generation. 🔍 In This Conversation: The Real Story Behind Gen Z’s Anxiety: It's not weakness. It's unprocessed complexity. Why Older Generations Miss the Mark: Nostalgia isn't a strategy, and tough love isn't enough. Is Technology the Villain? The truth about growing up in the digital pressure cooker. What Leadership Used to Be vs. What It Must Become: The shift from command-and-control to empathy-with-integrity. “Over-functioning Leaders Create Under-functioning Teams”: The leadership sabotage you don't even know you're doing. Emotional Literacy as a Performance Advantage: Why this generation will outperform everyone—if we stop dismissing them. 💡 Why It Matters: Gen Z isn’t confused about who they are. They’re confused about why their leaders refuse to see them. This isn’t a generational gap. It’s a values chasm. And if you don't bridge it, you'll lose the very people who hold the keys to your organization's future. 👤 About our guest: Tim Elmore: Dr. Tim Elmore is one of the world’s leading voices on next-generation leadership.

Part 2: Chills vs. Pills: The Future of Mental Health | Prof Nicco Reggente. Show Notes What if a simple shiver down your spine could heal depression, rewire belief, and even rival psychedelics in transforming the mind? In Part 2 of my conversation with Professor Nicco Reggente, we dive into the most disruptive neuroscience you’ve probably never heard of: the power of aesthetic chills. These goosebump-inducing moments, triggered by music, film, or human connection, aren’t just emotional fireworks. Nicco’s groundbreaking research shows they can: Restore the capacity for pleasure in patients where drugs fail Dissolve ego and unlock self-transcendence in ways that rival psychedelics Rewire maladaptive beliefs and reduce depression below clinical thresholds—sometimes in a single session Shape political extremes and social belonging, for better and for worse . This is not just about goosebumps. It’s about discovering whether chills are the most democratic and accessible tool for human flourishing—and the dangerous ways they can also be weaponized in cults, polarization, and extremist movements. . If you lead at the highest level, you cannot ignore what this means: the same nervous system mechanism that can heal can also manipulate. Understanding it may be the next frontier in leadership, influence, and human performance. In this episode, Professor Nicco Reggente and I explore: Why concerts, stadiums, and shared rituals dissolve ego into collective transcendence The dark side: how chills can fuel extremism, brainwashing, and polarization New research shows liberals and conservatives experience chills differently How AI-driven “schema surgery” videos create one-shot breakthroughs in depression Why chills may restore hedonic tone (pleasure) in anhedonic patients where pharmaceuticals fail How chills mirror psychedelic therapies—without the risks or stigma Why leaders who understand chills can harness empathy, belonging, and transformation at scale     About Professor Nicco Reggente Research Director, Institute for Advanced Consciousness Studies Specialist in non-ordinary states, belief updating, and applied neuroscience Innovator in AI-driven, personalized therapeutic interventions Author of breakthrough studies linking chills to depression, politics, and empathy Website https://advancedconsciousness.org/ https://advancedconsciousness.org/member/nicco-reggente/ Social Media https://www.linkedin.com/in/nreggente/     https://x.com/mobiuscydonia 🔥 Subscribe now to The Dov Baron Show—where elite leaders and restless thinkers sharpen their edge.

Part 1:  The Science of Chills: Unlocking Human Flourishing. | Prof Nicco Reggente. Why "The Matrix" became a cultural “chills” moment Show Notes What if the secret to rewiring your leadership and your life wasn’t another strategy or habit—but the moment that sends chills down your spine? . Professor Nicco Reggente is pioneering one of the most radical frontiers in neuroscience: decoding non-ordinary states of consciousness to unlock human flourishing, upgrade belief systems, and rewire identity itself. . This isn’t theory; it’s the cutting edge of science meeting leadership. Professor Nicco Reggente is the Research Director at the Institute for Advanced Consciousness Studies, where his work blends meditation, VR, neurofeedback, and machine learning to reveal how we can break free from the trance of the ordinary and step into states of clarity, empathy, and transformation. . In this first part of our two-part conversation, we dismantle the myths about resilience, expose why humans cling to toxic familiarity, and explore why aesthetic chills- those shivers you can’t ignore, might be the nervous system’s hidden code for transformation. . If you’ve ever felt a piece of music, film, or moment strike you so profoundly that it rearranged your inner world, this episode will show you why that reaction isn’t random. It’s your body telling you the truth your mind can’t yet speak. In this episode, you’ll discover: Why most leaders misunderstand resilience—and what it really demands How non-ordinary states of consciousness can accelerate human flourishing The hidden cost of clinging to the familiar, even when it destroys us Why maladaptive beliefs are actually survival codes—and how to evolve them The neuroscience of chills as a diagnostic tool for belief and identity How insight moments are physical, not just mental—and why that matters for power and decision-making Why The Matrix became a cultural “chills” moment—and what that reveals about consensus reality About Professor Nicco Reggente Research Director, Institute for Advanced Consciousness Studies Leading the global research on belief updating and identity through neuroscience Former UCLA lecturer in functional neuroimaging Innovator in personalized neuroscience, VR, and machine learning for human transformation Website https://advancedconsciousness.org/ https://advancedconsciousness.org/member/nicco-reggente/ Social Media https://www.linkedin.com/in/nreggente/     https://x.com/mobiuscydonia   🔥 Subscribe now to The Dov Baron Show—where serious thinkers, elite leaders, and restless visionaries come to sharpen their edge.

Part 2 of 2 of my conversation with a rare and iconic human, Dame Stephanie Shirley.  Who the world lost in the summer of 2025 What is true resilience?  . What if the very thing that almost broke you became the key to you in changing the world? . Dame Stephanie Shirley is not just a tech pioneer, she is living proof that resilience is forged in fire. From a childhood escape on the Kindertransport, to founding the first all-women software company in 1962 (decades before anyone whispered “remote work”), to building a $3 billion empire that created 70 millionaires, her story reads like legend. But what makes her extraordinary is not her success, it is how she faced trauma, breakdown, and the raw reality of raising an autistic son—and turned it into fuel for innovation, compassion, and radical philanthropy. . In this episode, we go deeper: how values-based hiring became her secret weapon, why Dame Shirley believes President Zelensky embodies the future of leadership, and how suffering, when confronted, can reveal who we truly are. If you think resilience means grinding harder, prepare to have that illusion shattered. . This isn’t a feel-good tale of triumph. It’s a masterclass in what it really takes to lead, build, break, and rebuild—without losing your humanity. . In this conversation, Dame Stephanie Shirley reveals: How trauma in childhood revealed her disruptive entrepreneurial DNA Why values, not skills, determine the fate of a business What Zelensky teaches us about the new face of leadership The brutal truth about resilience (and why most people misunderstand it) How breakdown became her turning point toward compassion and purpose The radical shift in how society views autism, and why neurodiversity is leadership’s untapped advantage Why philanthropy, done right, gives back far more than money ever could . Dame Shirley’s story forces you to ask yourself: What parts of me have I disenfranchised in the name of fitting in, and what would happen if I brought them back? About Dame Stephanie Shirley Founder of Freelance Programmers, the world’s first all-women software company (1962) Scaled to 8,500 employees and a $3 billion valuation Transformed women’s opportunities in technology, creating 70 millionaires in the process Knighted as a Dame, awarded the Companion of Honour Pioneering philanthropist in autism research, education, and venture philanthropy 🔥 If you’re ready to go beyond inspiration into deep transformation, subscribe now.
