ABSTRACT
The author extends the Executive Impression Management to include other types of managers, including a business owner. This demonstrates the portability and robustness of the core process to others in the workplace. Russell Wasendorf's inevitable financial ruin was delayed by some remarkably unwise decisions of the National Futures Association (NFA) by offloading clients of one troubled brokerage to another. The Likeable Fraudster is someone who uses organisational funds for his own use to build up his image for the most important people in his life. But there are identifying events that indicate a wounded psyche: several marriages and subsequent divorces, family breakdown, an overwhelming drive to be seen to be good in his home town. From the findings of the Arrogant Fraudster type there are indeed some parallels with family breakdown. As the Likeable Fraudster is intelligent and has good managerial skills he found himself in a position with access to money.
