Appendix A: List of Those Profiled

The following executives were profiled for this book. A single asterisk indicates an executive with whom I conducted a formal interview. Three interviewees preferred to remain anonymous, as referenced in the text. In some instances, I made minor alterations to their stories (dates, locations, product lines, and so forth) to protect the identities of those who might be embarrassed.
