On the Edge: The Art of High-Impact Leadership, Alison Levine


On the Edge: The Art of High-Impact Leadership
Alison Levine

One morning I was at the gym working out, listening to podcasts while I keep busy. I was listening to The School of Greatness with Lewis Howes, and his guest was Alison Levine, who has completed the Adventure Grand Slam, which includes climbing to the top of the highest peak on each of the continents, and including Mount Everest. She was sharing her stories from her adventures and how they correlate to leadership and teamwork. I think this was one of the best podcast episodes I have ever listened to. Each story was fascinating to listen to, and how she brought a lesson out of each one that can be applied in life and leadership, was amazing and eye opening. So of course I had to go home and look up her book and order it, and I am glad I did.

Whether or not you are in any kind of leadership or management, this book is a great read and can be applied to life, if you are a parent, a volunteer, or just have to work or live with other people, which is most of us. She blends storytelling and lessons so expertly, that they will stick in your mind for a long time after you read them.
