Description

Cynthia Cooper, Time "Person of the Year" in 2002, describes how her beliefs and values gave her the courage to expose one of the largest frauds in modern history. Not only does Cooper give a first person account of the events that led to the fall of WorldCom, she expands on her experience by sharing stories and lessons learned from childhood that helped to prepare her for the adversity she would later face as the internal audit manager of the company. 

At a time when corporate dishonesty is dominating public attention, "Extraordinary Circumstances" makes it clear that the tone set at the top is critical to fostering an ethical environment in the workplace. Provocative, moving and intensely personal, this book is a wake-up call to corporate leaders and an intimate glimpse at a scandal that shook the business world.
