Ep 86: The Power of Servant Leadership in Business

What does it really take to lead a team and grow a business that aligns with your values? In this episode of our Elevation Leadership Summit, Clarke reflects on lessons in leadership, delegation, and servant-hearted entrepreneurship—rooted in his own journey as a lawyer and business owner.

Through personal stories and deep reflections, we’ll talk about how growing a business isn’t about barking orders—it’s about building a team you trust and getting out of their way. Clarke opens up about the mentors and life experiences that shaped his servant leadership mindset, and how living out your mission, vision, and values creates lasting impact far beyond profits.

Here’s what we discuss in this episode:
🤝 Great leadership starts with serving others
🛠️ Delegation isn't weakness—it's how great teams grow
