In conversation with Zana Goic Petricevic

Leading on the Edge is a call to your soul. It challenges you to ask a most fundamental question, one that has guided me most of my life, "What must I be about in this life, to live the life I came here to live, and not someone else's life?"

This book is about saying yes to how life wants to live you. It is about the boldness, courage and audacity required to live and lead at the edge of this most fundamental question.

– Bob Anderson, Founder Leadership Circle, Co-Author Mastering Leadership and Scaling Leadership

About the book

Leading On The Edge Book Cover

In a world defined by complexity, systems and unwritten rules that no longer serve us are often normalised rather than questioned. What society truly needs are the brilliantly irrational ideas that challenge convention, push us beyond comfort, and invite us to take bold risks in pursuit of the extraordinary. Yet fear, uncertainty, and a perceived lack of agency frequently hold leaders back, reinforcing a culture of mediocrity.

Leading on the Edge, the new book by leadership transformation expert Zana Goic Petricevic, challenges this mindset and empowers readers to break free from limiting beliefs. Anchored by the rallying cry, “Why not you? Why not now?”, the book reframes boldness and leadership as accessible to all, urging readers to confront self-imposed limitations and act before they feel ready.

Structured across three parts - World on the Edge, Leadership on the Edge, and Daring on the Edge - the book guides readers from understanding today’s leadership context to embracing inner transformation and translating ideas into action. With reflective “Mirror Moments” and practical “Activation Zones,” Leading on the Edge bridges inspiration and impact, offering a powerful call for leaders to defy the status quo and lead with courage in an ever-changing world.
