Future State 2025: An Executive Leadership Manifesto on Technologies and Companies Reshaping the Enterprise Through Continuous Innovation and Relentless Self-Disruption will be available in bookstores and through online retailers in June 2019.

"History is merciless," said Muller. "Yesterday's winners are today's losers. Since its inception in 1928, the list of companies in the Dow Jones Industrial Average has changed 51 times. Which side of the fence are you on? Have you done everything you can possibly do to prepare your organization for success? This new book will help you make the right choices," Muller added.
