Microsoft CEO Nadella pens "Hit Refresh," book about corporate transformation

Hard to believe it's been four years since Microsoft chose Satya Nadella to lead the company to the future. Since then, there's been massive change afoot in Redmond, with Microsoft focusing on its cloud solutions and services while making a bit of a name for itself with its Surface line of 2-in-1's, laptops and desktops while successfully launching Windows 10, bolstering Xbox and purchasing LinkedIn. Nadella has shown proficiency in guiding the company as well as representing its interests and his book, titled "Hit Refresh," gives colleagues and customers an in-depth look at his philosophy and focus.

“Hit Refresh” isn’t a victory lap or a how-to manual. That would be premature. It’s a set of reflections, ideas and principles on transformation. It explores the renaissance of a storied company and the implications of the coming wave of technology — artificial intelligence, mixed reality and quantum computing — which will soon disrupt the status quo impacting our lives, communities and economies. It’s also a set of questions for anybody searching for improvement — for themselves as leaders, for their institutions and for society."

“Hit Refresh” goes on sale globally Sept. 26, 2017, and is available for preorder today. Satya Nadella will donate all proceeds from “Hit Refresh” to Microsoft Philanthropies.
