Beyond A Million

179: Why Most Company Values Are Total BS (And What to Do Instead) – 8FE


Listen Later

Too many companies treat their core values like wall art – nice to look at, easy to ignore.

In this episode, Brad sits down with Robert Glazer to explore how to make core values real in the day-to-day, not just on paper.

Robert is the founder of Acceleration Partners, a global affiliate marketing agency he scaled to multi-eight figures with a fully remote team of 300+ people across 40 countries. He brought on a private equity firm, took some money off the table, and now serves as chairman of the board. He's also a bestselling author and a recognized expert in values-based leadership and company culture.

In this conversation, Robert shares why values should guide every decision – from who you hire and fire to how you handle a million-dollar client who crosses the line. (Spoiler: he let the client go.) He also breaks down his Open Transition Program, an alternative to the two-week notice that prioritizes transparency and dignity on the way out, not just on the way in.

From there, the conversation moves into the evolution of affiliate marketing, the structure behind high-performing remote teams, and how to grow under private equity without losing what matters.

If you care about scaling with integrity, this one's worth your time.

Tune in now!
