She doesn’t always dive in with flashy offers or big promises, but her methodical and adaptable style has helped her achieve incredible results across a variety of industries.
Despite her proven success, she often finds herself overshadowed by sharks like Lori Greiner, whose QVC empire makes a big impression. However, fans are beginning to speak up, challenging these perceptions and sparking debates about who really has the sharpest instincts in the tank.
Reddit user details why Barbara Corcoran deserves more respect onShark Tank
Barbara Corcoranhas been a key part ofShark Tanksince the very beginning, but many fans feel that she doesn’t always get the respect she deserves. While other sharks, like Lori Greiner, are often praised for their success, her track record quietly speaks for itself. In fact, some fans argue that she is one of the best investors on the panel, and they are tired of her being overlooked.
One Reddit user expressed this frustration clearly on social media by adding,“I’d take Barbara over Lori 10 times out of 10.”
Corcoran has built a career by excelling across many different industries, which include snacks, fashion, leisurewear, restaurants, and of course, real estate. She is not limited to one area of expertise, and her ability to take businesses from small ideas tothriving enterprisesshows just how talented she really is. Fans admire the way she rolls up her sleeves and helps entrepreneurs build long-term success instead of just looking for quick wins.
On the other hand,Lori Greinerhas earned her reputation as the “Queen of QVC” by helping consumer products find massive success. There is no doubt that she is skilled at turning great products into top sellers, especially when they are a good fit for QVC’s audience. However, some fans feel that her success is more about the platform she uses rather than her abilities as an investor.
While her strategy works well for specific kinds of products, Corcoran’s way of working is seen as more adaptable and better suited for a variety of industries. The user didn’t stop there, as they also shared their opinions about another shark, Daymond John. While John has had some major successes, likehis investment in Bombas, some viewers believe his overall track record has been less consistent.

How did dyslexia shape Barbara Corcoran’s success?
Barbara Corcoran has built a successful empire, earning respect for her sharp business skills. However, her rise to the top wasn’t without struggles, and one of the biggest challenges she faced was dyslexia. In a recent conversation on the podcastLessons in Dyslexic Thinking, Corcoran revealed how this condition played a significant role in shaping her path to success.
As a child, she didn’t realize she had dyslexia and found school difficult, especially when it came to reading and keeping up with her lessons. This made her feel different from the other kids and led to feelings of insecurity. She shared“There’s a pain that goes with being different from the other kids,”explaining how this struggle caused her to doubt her own abilities for years.
It wasn’t until her son was diagnosed with dyslexia that Corcoran understood she had been dealing with the same condition all along. Despite the many challenges that came with dyslexia, she eventually began to see it as a strength. She believes that overcoming the difficulties of dyslexia taught her perseverance and resilience, two qualities that have been key to her success.
