About this audiobook
Deep corruption threatened to ruin jobs and harm lives. Intimidation, distrust, and secrecy became
the norm among the executive management group of Chelan County Public Utility District.
Even in a small and semirural American government, corrupt leaders aren’t simply dishonest and immoral.
They’re dangerous.
A board of directors should hold wrongdoers accountable, but sometimes that responsibility falls to
righteous employees. A riveting and relevant memoir, The Intrepid Brotherhood details a classic story
of enlightened leaders’ war against oppressive management when private misconduct evokes public
resistance.
A multimillion-dollar project had the potential to transform the PUD’s business management. Instead, it
ended in management conflict and Gordon’s discharge. His determination for justice revealed a culture of
sinister practices and problems that would cost more than the company’s reputation. Despite economic
upheaval, career interruption, and near criminal mistreatment, he and the whistleblowers of Chelan
County PUD stood up for the professional values lost along the way.
Control and power can corrupt even the most ethical organization’s integrity—unless someone speaks up.
Read The Intrepid Brotherhood now and pursue a principled foundation of honor for your organization.
