ESPIONAGE. FRAUD. POLITICS. 'This book is one of the most chilling and compelling business stories I’ve ever read. Lynn Brewer lived the Enron story, and in a deeply personal, yet highly professional way, lets us peek into what can go horribly wrong in a publicly-traded business. There are some great lessons for leadership in this tale.'Oren Harari,Author, The Leadership Secrets of Colin Powell 'In this incredibly lucid and juicy account of Enron’s shenanigans, Lynn Brewer courageously reveals what went on behind the scenes. What she reports will shock the financial press who voted Enron 'the most innovative and admired' five years in a row. It will shame research analysts and investors who drove Enron’s stock up into the stratosphere - while never being able to explain how Enron made money. Brewer hasn’t forgotten the teachers, the small business owners and retirees who lost a bundle when the house of cards came crashing down. She urges us to see Enron not simply as the failure of a few people and institutions. No, it is symptomatic of our win-at-any-cost culture. To prevent future Enrons, we all must look to see how our choices perpetuate this culture, which ultimately, like Enron, is unsustainable.'L. J. Rittenhouse,Author, Do Business With People You Tru$t: Balancing Profitsand Principles 'Lynn Brewer unabashedly exposes the unchecked greed and chicanery operating in the leadership of Enron. Her story clearly reveals how the unethical leadership at Enron led to an unbearable culture of emotional turbulence and fear, drawing everyone into a web of deceit. Readers will get the inside view of one of the country’s biggest corporate scandals.'Danna Beal, M.Ed.,Author, Tragedy in the Workplace: The Longest Running Show in the Country LIES. DECEPTIONS. SCANDAL.ENRON. Confessions of an Enron Executive: A Whistlebower’s Story, is Lynn Brewer’s gripping account of nearly three years spent with the company that has come to symbolize the worst in corporate greed. Lynn’s riveting tale takes you deep into the heart of Enron for a shocking look at both the notorious illicit deals and the unscrupulous people who made them. Having spent time with Enron’s water company, trading division, power trading desk, and the broadband unit, coupled with Lynn’s background in accounting and law, a scandalous portrait emerges of a company run amok in the name of naked avarice. Fascinating, revelatory, and often times hilarious, Confessions of an Enron Executive: A Whistleblower’s Story details the riveting account of her career at Enron, and her decision to blow the whistle to lawyers and the United States Government, long before the world had ever heard of Sherron Watkins.
