Lead Beyond The Edge: The Bold Path to Extraordinary, reviewed

Frederique Murphy has always been a positive, support and encouraging character, so it makes sense that she has aimed to capture her own journey and use it to create a road map to nudge, help and encourage others. Having worked with her at events, and seen her desire and passion to connect with her audiences it can seem like it all happens effortlessly. But, as you can imagine, much like the swan’s webbed feet paddling hard under the surface, so too with Murphy is has not always been smooth sailing, and this helps make for a more engaging and nuanced narrative.

Murphy aims to deliver a book with as much actionable and sharable content as possible. A recurring triangular motif appears throughout the book, which aims to pin down the steps to take, to get from where you currently are, to where you would like to be. Resilience and problem solving are key concepts in this book, all the more relevant and appropriate in the times we now live in, and may well continue to do so for at least another three to six months potentially.

It has been an interesting, challenging, and ultimately positive journey for Murphy, both in her career and in creating this book also. It may also help to nudge you to do the things you aim to achieve also. Go for it.
