The Leadership Path

Leadership is a journey of self discovery, personal challenge, and growth. Perhaps it’s the ultimate never-ending journey, with increasing wisdom and mastery, but no final destination.

In The Leadership Path: A Guide for Leading Yourself, Your Team, and Your Organisation, Blake Repine distils his years of experience into a series of short, simple leadership principles. These principles will challenge your thinking and help you to grow as a leader.

Drawing on examples from the military and the corporate world, Blake offers practical principles about a wide range of topics, including unconscious bias, accountability, imposter syndrome, and moral courage. He addresses complex issues such as balancing compliance and commitment, addressing organisational culture, and managing up.

Blake’s conversational style and unique combination of theory and examples provides a practical guide for anyone who wants to develop their leadership skills.
