STORY BEHIND THE BOOK
Join us for a celebration and book launch–From Dirt Roads to Boardrooms: The Making of The Expert Generalist with Monique Lecomte
What does it take to turn adversity into opportunity? To carve your own path when no blueprint exists? The Expert Generalist: An Unpaved Road to Leadership is a bold exploration of fortitude, adaptability, and resilience—key traits that transformed Monique Lecomte’s journey from growing up in poverty in the American South to leading in global boardrooms.
In this special book launch event, Monique shares the powerful lessons behind her story—how embracing feedback, leaning into creativity, and building strong connections can fuel personal and professional growth. Through candid and often unexpected stories—navigating the deep South’s religious culture, selling peaches in a K-Mart parking lot, and finding her place in a world far beyond Alabama—she unpacks what it means to be an expert generalist: someone who adapts, innovates, and thrives across disciplines.
With each chapter offering actionable insights, Monique challenges readers to stand tall, advocate for themselves, and embrace the versatility needed to lead with authenticity. More than just a memoir, The Expert Generalist is a call to action—to reimagine success, foster mentorship, and navigate your own unpaved road.
Don’t miss this inspiring conversation and celebration! Whether you're an entrepreneur, leader, or someone simply looking to design a life and career on your own terms, this event will leave you with a renewed sense of purpose and possibility.
