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 various 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 provide a practical guide for anyone who wants to develop their leadership skills.

Leadership means influencing and motivating others to accomplish a particular task. Gandhi, Mandela, and Churchill are considered to be some of the greatest leaders of all time. But what makes a truly great leader?

Former US Army soldier Blake Repine capitalised on the skills he learned in the military to successfully transition to various leadership roles in the private and government sectors. His Army experience taught him the key traits required to be an effective leader: strategic thinking, self-discipline, careful research, real listening, and good conversations, attributes that he discovered translate equally well to the corporate world. 

He has learned from the very best and the very worst of leaders. Blake has assembled all his accumulated wisdom and practical knowledge in his book, Soldier to Executive: Applying Army Leadership Principles to the Corporate World, hoping that others will benefit from his experiences learning how to lead and provide authentic leadership for others. 

In addition to his many academic qualifications, Blake's unique combination of theory, hands-on experience, and detailed research makes this book a valuable resource for anyone who aspires to be a great leader.
