摘要：

The 1899 book and the 1939 MGM film The Wizard of Oz hold a permanent influence on US culture. In this article we describe hour the Wizard of Oz's story can serve as a metaphor for balancing energies and organizational transformation at all levels Just as the spiritual transformation of a person must be initiated from within, so organizations must discover the inner power to balance energies and transform themselves into more humane systems.
