Welcome—I’m Peter Rios. A professor of leadership at NYU, bestselling author, consultant, and global speaker with a passion for helping people grow and lead with impact.

For more than two decades, I’ve worked with leaders, organizations, and communities across the U.S., Latin America, and beyond—partnering with universities, companies, nonprofits, and global institutions. My journey—from serving in the U.S. Marine Corps to teaching in classrooms and speaking on international stages—has shaped an approach to leadership that is practical, intercultural, and future-focused.

At the core of my work is a commitment to values, purpose, and transformation. Whether in business, education, or ministry spaces, I believe leadership is a calling to serve and inspire others toward greater impact.

This channel is where I share that journey with you: big ideas, fresh insights, and practical strategies to help you lead with clarity, courage, and vision.

🚀 Maximizing Leaders. Transforming Nations.

5 Simple Shifts That Can Transform Your Life. 🚀

Most people want change.
Few people commit to small, daily decisions that create it.

Here’s the truth:

1️⃣ Be “1” of a kind.
Stop trying to be a copy. Your originality is your advantage.

2️⃣ You have “2” options.
Stay comfortable… or grow. Growth always costs comfort.

3️⃣ The “3” pillars of success.
Focus. Consistency. Attitude.
Master these, and you master momentum.

4️⃣ “4” words that transform your life:
“I believe in myself.”
Belief shifts identity. Identity drives behavior.

5️⃣ “5” minutes a day.
Reflection creates clarity. Clarity creates power.

Transformation doesn’t start big.
It starts intentional.

🌐 Dominamos el Wi-Fi.
Pero perdimos la conexión.🖇️

La señal es fuerte.
La alineación es débil.

Aquí comienza la reconexión real:
1. Reconecta con Dios
2. Reconecta contigo
3. Reconecta con tu propósito
4. Reconecta con los demás

Todo lo demás sigue.

🌐 We mastered Wi-Fi.
But lost connection. 🖇️

Signal is strong.
Alignment is weak.

Here’s the reset:
1. Reconnect with God
2. Reconnect with yourself
3. Reconnect with your purpose
4. Reconnect with people

🚨 Si tu liderazgo se trata de control…
estás formando seguidores — no líderes.

🌟 El liderazgo real no acumula poder.
Lo multiplica.

Crea entornos donde otros prosperan.
Mide el éxito por la sucesión.
Eleva a otros al protagonismo.
Ve el potencial antes de que sea evidente.

Eso no es debilidad.
Eso es legado.

Si estás listo para liderar así —
no solo influenciar, sino transformar —

🌟 If your leadership is about control…
you’re building followers — not leaders.

👉🏾 Real leaders don’t hoard power.
They multiply it.

They build environments where others thrive.
They measure success by succession.
They lift others into the spotlight.
They see potential before it’s obvious.

That’s not soft leadership.
That’s legacy.

If you’re ready to lead like that —
not just influence, but transform —

✨ I teach because I believe.
I believe because I question.
I question because I love truth.

The leadership our world needs
isn’t perfect—it’s honest, formed, and deeply human.

Welcome to this space.

👑 El liderazgo verdadero no obliga obediencia.
Crea condiciones para el crecimiento.

Si tu liderazgo solo funciona cuando estás presente,
no es liderazgo—es control.

Los líderes saludables no dominan.
Desarrollan.

No forman seguidores.
Construyen caminos.

👇🏽
¿Quién creó un camino para ti—y cómo lo estás haciendo ahora por otros?

👑 True leadership doesn’t force obedience.
It creates conditions for growth.

If your leadership only works when you’re in the room,
it’s not leadership—it’s control.

Healthy leaders don’t dominate.
They develop.

They don’t build followers.
They build paths.

👇🏽
Who helped create a path for you—and how are you doing that for others?

Dr. Peter Rios

✨ There’s a kind of leadership that wins by training people to stop feeling.

It normalizes cruelty as “strength.”
It calls empathy “weakness.”
It treats the vulnerable like a tool—then calls it “order.”

But here’s the truth:
The way a leader treats the vulnerable tells you everything.

Healthy leadership protects.
It refuses to turn pain into policy.
It refuses to make fear look normal.

Don’t get used to what should still shock you.

Question: What’s one leadership behavior you refuse to normalize—at work, in church, or in society? 👇🏽
