THE FUTURE BEGINS NOW.

“Rosenstein skillfully draws on both his own wisdom and that of his mentor to deliver a plan for individuals and businesses in creating a future rich in personal and professional success. Leave your compass at home; all you need is Rosenstein’s new book!”

—Marshall Goldsmith, million-selling author of the New York Times bestsellers, MOJO and What Got You Here Won't Get You There

* Become Your Own Successor: Keep yourself in demand and in control of your destiny

* Shape the Future of Your Organization: Go beyond the planning stage and create real change

* Build Your Future Beyond Your Current Workplace: Identify challenges and opportunities in all aspects of your life
