Synopsis Using symbolism culled from L. Frank Baum's classic THE WIZARD OF OZ, the authors illustrate how many business leaders misuse their assets and then blame others for the ensuing mistakes. Just as Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and the Lion come to discover that the treasures they so desperately sought were actually with them all along, most managers and employees possess the heart, courage and wisdom to succeed, if they only begin to accept responsibility rather than maneuvering to prepare for failure. The authors use prominent anecdotes from today's business world to demonstrate their claims and outline a concrete plan for increasing accountability and leadership in the office.

Publisher's Note Now in paperback, "The Oz Principle" shows how people in business suffer from the same feelings of anxiety and helplessness that beset the characters in "The Wizard of Oz". The authors show how people can move beyond victimization to overcome obstacles, accept responsibility, and rise to new heights of achievement.
