The Mission
Helping people discover the power of servant leadership to transform their lives and organizations.
Hello, I'm Peter Usikpo
I write about the intersection of service, leadership, and habits. My work focuses on how small, consistent acts of service can transform not just organizations, but entire communities.
After spending over a decade studying leadership in various contexts—from Fortune 500 companies to grassroots nonprofits—I discovered a pattern: the most effective leaders share one trait. They put others first.
Why Servant Leadership?
In a world obsessed with personal brand building and self-optimization, servant leadership might seem counterintuitive. But the research is clear: organizations led by servant leaders outperform their peers in every meaningful metric—employee engagement, customer satisfaction, innovation, and yes, profitability.
More importantly, servant leadership creates environments where people thrive. Where they do their best work. Where they find meaning and purpose.
The Serve & Lead Philosophy
I believe that:
- Small actions compound. A daily practice of service creates exponential impact over time.
- Everyone can lead. Leadership isn't about titles or authority—it's about influence and impact.
- Service is strength. Putting others first isn't weakness; it's the ultimate expression of confidence and capability.
- Habits shape identity. What you do repeatedly becomes who you are.
