In this brief and timely audiobook, best-selling authors and experts in their field look at what conspires against "a culture of candor" in organizations for disastrous results and suggest ways that leaders can achieve healthy honesty and openness.

Thirty years ago, the best-selling "letter to the government", Work in America, was published to national acclaim, including front-page coverage in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Washington Post. It sounded an alarm about worker dissatisfaction and the effects on the nation as a whole.

Leadership A to Z is a leadership coach in audiobook form, whose only learning prerequisite, as author O'Toole points out, is a disposition toward "appropriate ambition." It's the ideal guide for individuals looking to quickly build or improve their leadership skills and for organizations looking to increase leadership capacity throughout their ranks.

In Leading Change, James O'Toole argues that outdated Machiavellian dictates of situational leadership are ultimately ineffective - and demonstrates instead that successful leadership is rooted in high moral purpose and consistent respect for followers.
