Aaron Bare is a forceful voice in the world of innovation, futurism, and exponential leadership who doesn’t just talk about change, he makes it happen. He’s the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and #1 Amazon bestselling author of Exponential Theory: The Power of Thinking Big, a book born from years of travel to nearly a hundred countries and hands-on work with leaders across industries. Aaron parachutes into boardrooms and stages with one mission: to help leaders solve the unsolvable, build businesses that don’t just grow but thrive, and think in exponential terms rather than incremental comfort loops. His work isn’t theoretical fluff, it’s the outgrowth of launching and exiting a dozen companies, facilitating transformation at global giants, and distilling frameworks like the Rhodium Rule, Mars Shots, and Thrivability into tools that leaders can actually use.

Out of the spotlight, Aaron’s a contagious presence with a laugh that destabilizes anxiety and a knack for turning complexity into clarity. He has facilitated innovation and strategy in over 90 countries and all 50 U.S. states, working with Fortune 500 firms, startups, universities, and global communities. Whether he’s teaching future leaders, cracking open entrenched assumptions, or designing AI-centered futures, Aaron’s aim is simple but ruthless: dismantle the small thinking that traps leaders and unleash the exponential mindset that creates the future.
