SPEAKER: MARK WHITACRE
Mark Whitacre is an Ivy League PhD and the highest ranked executive of any Fortune 500 company to become a whistle blower in U.S. history. He is responsible for uncovering the multi-billion dollar ADM price-fixing scandal in the early 1990s. His undercover work with the FBI during the ADM scandal was the inspiration for the major motion picture, “The Informant,” starring Matt Damon as Mark Whitacre, and the 2010 Discovery Channel documentary, “Undercover,” archived on Mark’s website: www.markwhitacre.com. The recent book, “Mark Whitacre: Against All Odds,” describes the rest of the story of how faith has molded Mark’s life since the ADM scandal.
Drawing from this unique history, Mark provides one-of-a-kind insight into corporate ethics, corporate greed, and the warning signs of flawed leadership.
“The story about Mark Whitacre’s redemption and second chance is one of the most inspirational stories of our time,” said Douglas Burris, chief of U.S. Federal Probation in Missouri. Mark and Ginger, his wife of 40 years, have 3 grown children and they live in Florence, Kentucky (near Cincinnati, Ohio).
