Book of The Month
In Prophecy Before Vision, visionary thinker James Michael Matthew presents a groundbreaking approach to leadership and foresight. Drawing on his experience founding a global initiative aimed at reducing inequality, Matthew introduces a powerful framework that empowers leaders in any field to predict challenges, seize opportunities, and drive meaningful change.
This insightful book reveals the untapped potential within each of us to cultivate “prophetic” abilities-through wisdom, empathy, and generosity. By applying Matthew’s strategies-helping others succeed, fostering intellectual communities, and creating economic opportunities-leaders can address the world’s most entrenched problems, from poverty and crime to the lack of education and healthcare.
More than just theory, Prophecy Before Vision offers a bold, actionable roadmap for transforming organizations, societies, and global systems. With an emphasis on collaboration and principled leadership, this book redefines how we approach social challenges, showing that foresight is not just a gift but a skill every leader can master. For those ready to embrace a fresh, optimistic perspective on leadership, this book is a must-read. Unlock your potential to lead with vision and change the world.
Mr. Matthew’s impressive educational background complements his forward-thinking leadership. He holds a Master’s in Biotechnology Enterprise and Entrepreneurship from Johns Hopkins University, an MBA from Michigan State University, and a Bachelor of Arts in Accounting and Auditing from the University of Illinois-Springfield. His dedication to lifelong learning is further demonstrated by postgraduate studies in Law and Sustainability and The Future of Sustainable Business at the Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment, University of Oxford, as well as Artificial Intelligence Implications for Business Strategy at the MIT Sloan School of Management.

Testimonial
Client Feedback & Reviews
Don’t know if my message found its way to West Virginia this morning, but I really do appreciate all you and your colleagues have been doing for me. Thank you! Also, I have written quite a few books and am writing some now. Would ITP like to look at them when the present is completed? Can I just emphasize how you have motivated me….. I am 84 but I feel much younger having worked with you……well done! Thank you!
I recently used ITP for the representation to traditional publishers and I am so glad I did! They were incredibly successful in helping me get my book represented to traditional publishers and it was definitely worth the investment. Not only did I get exposure to traditional publishers, but I also received helpful marketing materials to help promote my book. I highly recommend ITP for anyone looking to get their book published!
If you are an author, and you don’t have InkTrail Press in your team just yet, I highly recommend that you check it out. If you want to take your book to the next level, use InkTrail Press and don’t look any further.
This cover is so beautiful and professional, it speaks to me. It is truly a masterpiece of art that will catch the eye of many who have experienced their own grief and loss or going through it right now. A Walk through Life is about the pain of grief and the redemption to walk tall and find understanding and compassion. I found through my journey a great deal of self acceptance and peace. This cover captures the essence and mood of the book and welcome's everyone in
COMMON QUESTIONS
Most Common Questions
Find answers to frequently asked questions from authors who are new to our services or considering publishing with us.
Hybrid publishing is a model that combines elements of traditional publishing and self-publishing. In hybrid publishing, authors typically share the cost of publishing with the publisher, but they also have more control over the publishing process compared to traditional publishing. This can include aspects such as editing, design, and distribution. Hybrid publishing can offer authors a middle ground between the traditional publishing route, which can be difficult to break into, and self-publishing, which requires authors to handle most aspects of publishing themselves.
Inktrail Press is a full-service hybrid publisher that combines the advantages of traditional publishing with the creative control and rights ownership of self-publishing. Our model provides quality and retail distribution comparable to major publishers, while empowering authors to retain their rights, exercise creative control, and generate higher profits from book sales.
