Dr. Aaron Barth Biography
Dr. Aaron Barth’s expertise in workplace science began in the lecture halls of academia. As a professor of philosophy at Western University, he specialized in the science of human reasoning, decision theory, and the implications of language on rational thought. While his research was groundbreaking, he noticed a critical gap: the scientific advancements in how humans think and decide were not reaching the leaders who needed them most.
Driven by the need for evidence-based solutions to real-world business challenges, Aaron pivoted from his burgeoning academic career in 2010 to launch Dialectic. His goal was to take the rigor of formal logic and the insights of behavioral science and apply them to the messy, complex problems of the modern workplace. Over the next 15 years, he developed a state-of-the-art, human-centered design process that has transformed the businesses of over 50 major organizations across the healthcare, automotive, and public sectors.
Today, Aaron is recognized as a preeminent expert in Critical Thinking for AI. He believes that the greatest risk of the AI revolution is not job loss, but the autopilot mode humans fall into when relying on AI. Drawing on his deep expertise in “Thinking Fast and Slow,” Aaron shows audiences how the intuitive mental shortcuts we use in a high-pressure, hybrid world often lead to errors. He teaches organizations how to slow down, pressure-test AI-generated results, and engage in the deep, focused judgment that no machine can replicate.
Aaron has designed cutting-edge curricula that have influenced over 10,000 learners, with data showing that 83% of participants report a tangible change in behavior after completing his programs. Whether he is speaking to executives about critical thinking or training frontline teams on cognitive agility, Aaron brings a unique blend of scholarly rigor and audience-friendly delivery. He lives in Guelph, Ontario, where he continues to lead Dialectic in its mission to build future-ready workplaces where humans and technology thrive in a rational, ethical partnership.
