Narrated by:
$1.2 Billion Proof that Doing Good and Doing Well Can Be Synonymous.
From prosecuting John Gotti to building billion-dollar companies, Michael Cherkasky's memoir delivers one of the most gripping, improbable careers in American life. As a Manhattan ADA, he tried organized crime bosses and investigated BCCI, one of history's largest bank frauds. As a federal monitor, he reformed the LAPD, the Teamsters, and HSBC. As a Fortune 200 CEO, he saved Marsh & McLennan from criminal indictment. As an entrepreneur, he built Exiger from a two-person rented office into a $1.2 billion company and paid out nearly $500 million to more than 300 employees.
Good Purpose is more than a memoir. It's a battle-tested argument that purpose-driven companies don't just do good—they outperform. Cherkasky's insider accounts of Gotti, Eliot Spitzer, the FBI, Wall Street, and corporate America offer access no journalist can replicate.
For fans of Heart of Business, What It Takes, and Shoe Dog, and for fans of true crime, leadership, and accountability, this is the rare book that works on every level.
