CASE STUDY

A Whistleblower's New Life

Challenge

An individual who successfully won a whistleblower case against a nationally recognized business leader was denied justice when the transgressor used his immense wealth to trash her reputation, initiate a black-ball campaign, and deny the court-awarded payment. Struggling to move forward, this whistleblower contacted Red Banyan to help her craft a strategy that would bring attention to the plight of whistleblowers and help her establish new direction for her life.

Action

Red Banyan worked with our client to craft a compelling story that would be told in a variety of target-industry media outlets, including Law360, Whistleblowers News Network, Human Resources Director Magazine, JD Supra, Whistleblower.org, and others. 

Red Banyan also helped the client cast herself as an expert in the complexities of female whistleblowers and connected her with other nationally and internationally prominent whistleblowers 

Then Red Banyan helped the client create a non-profit focused on educating other whistleblowers and build a business based on her status as a whistleblower expert. This included creating and launching a podcast devoted to whistleblowers.

The team at Red Banyan demonstrated the utmost professionalism and understanding of our unique needs and how to both position and present our story. We could not be more impressed with Red Banyan. We are grateful for the efforts on our behalf.
