Stepping Down as CEO to Match Values

For many high achievers, outward success often doesn’t lead to true fulfillment, especially when decision-making isn’t guided by a strong sense of purpose. Robert Glazer believes the key to overcoming this challenge is aligning your actions with your core values. Without this alignment, even the most successful can feel lost or directionless. This insight inspired his new book, The Compass Within. In this episode, Robert returns to reveal how clarifying your values can transform your mindset, drive authentic leadership, and empower purposeful decision-making for lasting fulfillment.
