Abstract
The act of whistle-blowing came into prominence when two women blew the whistle on corporate financial fraud in two of the largest corporate frauds in the US history. Sherron Watkins of Enron and Cynthia Cooper of WorldCom were responsible for exposing the senior management of their companies for manipulating the financial records. Another woman, Coleen Rowley of the FBI, blew the whistle on the management at the FBI Office.
