The search for meaning has been an obsession of Dov Baron from his earliest days. He was born in Northern England in abject poverty, surrounded by crime, violence, and addiction, and knew there must be more to life than suffering and abuse.
Dov left his destructive environment to travel and study with some of the world’s leading thinkers. He then parlayed his learning into founding and building companies on three continents.
Adrenaline seeking was Dov’s addiction. While free climbing a mountain in British Columbia in 1990, he fell from the rock face at approximately 120 feet high and broke dozens of bones, including every bone in his face. Ten reconstructive surgeries followed including two instances when he was brought back from the dead. This experience and where he ventured into the dragon’s den, his metaphor for his darkest days, changed his life.
Today, Dov Baron is a best-selling author, the founder and CEO of Dov Baron International. He is a preeminent expert in helping leaders create life-and-work meaning. His models and strategies of the Emotional Source Code and the Anatomy of Meaning are used by leaders in business and government worldwide.
On Chatter that Matters, Dov shares his thoughts on how you can be a better leader, what countries need to do to lead, and what needs to happen to teach our children well.
