Richard Bistrong was a majorly successful VP of Sales for a global defence manufacturer for 20 years. In 2012, after smashing his targets and then some, Richard was sentenced and served fourteen-and-a-half months at a U.S federal prison camp.
His is a journey through the dark side of international sales, through bribery and corruption. It is a story of the extreme edges of bad governance - when leaders hold people to account for aggressive targets and choose not to ask the right questions. It is a story of dangerous silence and the illusion of good performance.
