Barak Zilberberg: Building Power with Purpose in Business, Service, and Leadership

Leadership Forged Through Responsibility

Barak Zilberberg’s leadership philosophy was shaped long before boardrooms and balance sheets. Raised by Israeli immigrant parents in Los Angeles, he grew up with discipline, accountability, and self-reliance as nonnegotiable values. Working from a young age and becoming independent early instilled a mindset where responsibility was not delegated but owned.

Mastery Before Scale

Barak’s rise began in the skilled trades, where he learned the realities of execution, systems, and people management. As President of Ultimate Plumbing, he transformed a trade-based operation into Southern California’s largest copper repiping company. This phase defined his belief that true scale is earned through mastery, not shortcuts.

Strategic Expansion into Global Real Estate

Entering real estate investing at 21, Barak applied operational discipline to capital strategy. He later founded Zilberberg Worldwide, a global real estate enterprise focused on investment, development, and long-term value creation. His approach prioritizes fundamentals, risk awareness, and patience over speculation.

Purpose-Driven Capital Allocation

In 2021, Barak established The Zilberberg Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to empowering children with cancer, youth with disabilities, and underserved communities. Its work centers on education, financial literacy, trade skills, mental health advocacy, and access to affordable homeownership. For Barak, capital is a tool for impact when aligned with purpose.

Resilience as an Operating System

Barak’s bestselling book, Resilience, distills the principles that guide his life and leadership. The message is clear. Endurance, discipline, and consistency outperform talent when pressure rises. The book has resonated with entrepreneurs and executives seeking clarity in uncertain environments.

Health, Discipline, and Decision Quality

A strong advocate for fitness and nutritional literacy, Barak views physical and mental strength as strategic assets. He believes decision quality improves when leaders invest in health, structure, and routine. Leadership, in his view, begins with self-mastery.

Entering the Public Arena

Barak’s commitment to service led him into politics, with campaigns for Nevada Governor in 2022 and U.S. President in 2024. He is currently a candidate for Nevada Governor in 2026 and for President in 2028. His platform reflects entrepreneurial execution, accountability, and community-first governance.
