The Precipice of Life: Leadership and Personal Growth Insights from a Mountaineer's Edge
In The Precipice of Life: Leadership and Personal Growth Insights from a Mountaineer's Edge, Bo Parfet creates powerful connections between the experience, knowledge, and wisdom he gained while climbing the world's tallest mountains--the Seven Summits--and circumstances in his personal and professional life.
Parfet shares stories from his expeditions and other areas of his life, including a devastating business deal that almost destroyed Parfet and everything and everyone close to him. These profound exempla show how adversity, challenges, and even failures can be overcome with a growth mindset, the support of close friends and colleagues, and surrender to a power higher than oneself.
Parfet guides his readers through a variety of themes, including:
o Curiosity and Commitment
o Falling is not Failing
o Grit, Risk, and Perseverance
o Leadership & Mentoring
o The Gift of Letting Go
o Claiming Happiness
o Success to Significance--Leaving a Legacy, and more.
He also weaves the wisdom of thought leaders who have their own stories of growth and perseverance. Some of these people profiled within The Precipice of Life are Kenton Cool, Eric Weinhenmayer, April Rinne, Nate Klemp, Doug Holladay, and many more.
Raw, real, and humble -- The Precipice of Life is a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper connection with themselves, enhanced relationships, and more impact and influence in the world.
