Open-Book Management (OBM) system is broken down into four principles that need to be established in a company’s culture so that it reaps the fruits of this system:

4. Give people a stake in the company’s success (or failure).
The book presents numerous case studies on the success of OBM for companies, some of which are amongst Fortune 500, in addition to testimonies of many executives on the positive change that had affected their companies’ bottom lines after applying the OBM.
