About

Doug Blackie

Welcome to Real Leaders – a blog dedicated to individuals who are focussed on applying practical, in-the-moment leadership in order to advance the goals of their organization, team, work unit, hockey team, committee or family.

Real leadership is pragmatic leadership. It is about being authentic and demonstrating, modelling and applying leadership skills that are required right now, in the moment.

Real leadership is about effectiveness, collaboration, empowerment, helping others read the roadmap and standing back to enable your colleagues and staff become real leaders themselves.

Look for a new post each Monday morning. My hope is that you will enjoy these posts – and feel free to comment or share.
