ABSTRACT
Samek epitomized the “new” Andersen. Unlike Leonard Spacek’s derby-clad technicians, Samek was an aggressive salesman and an extroverted showman. Samek rose to prominence within Andersen through his work on the Boston Chicken account. In one of his annual performance reviews, Samek was praised for turning Boston Chicken’s $50,000 audit into a $3 million full-service engagement.
