Castellorizo is a tiny Greek island that’s had a big impact in Australia. Despite having a land area of less than 10 square kilometres and a current population of approximately 500 people, Castellorizian migrants and their descendants have achieved remarkable levels of prominence and success in Australia.

    Cazzie, is both a nickname for the island and for a person with Castellorizian heritage. Cazzies in Australia have excelled in the arts, business, education, law, media, medicine, science and sport. They have also been strong contributors in their local communities and many have gone on to become State and Federal Politicians, Lord Mayors and State Governors.

    The Cazzie Connection is a concept, a model and now a book that examines the extraordinary levels of success of Castellorizians in Australia. It codifies the cultural characteristics and personal attributes of this unique group of migrants into a framework of success principles. These principles can be applied by organisations to build vibrant and connected workplace cultures, and by individuals to achieve success in their lives and careers.
