Sherron Watkins warned CEO Ken Lay in August 2001, that Enron “might implode in a wave of accounting scandals.” She testified before Congressional Committees from the House and Senate investigating Enron’s demise. TIME magazine named Sherron, along with two others, Coleen Rowley of the FBI and Cynthia Cooper of WorldCom, as their 2002 Persons of the Year, The Whistleblowers, for being “people who did right just by doing their jobs rightly.” Watkins now lectures on leadership and ethics around the globe and as Professor of the Practice at Kenan-Flagler at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Watkins is co-author of Power Failure, the Inside Story of the Collapse of Enron, (Doubleday, 2003).
