> She was riding a treadmill of expectations. Started off slowly, probably thinking "yeah, we can do this" and by the time the treadmill was moving at light speed, it was too late to get off.

She absolutely was not. It was completely obvious to anyone with any knowledge of the subject that what she was doing was fraudulent.

I have no knowledge of the subject.

I do, however, have a strong allergic reaction to motivational speeches from wide-eyed people with enormous grins. Well, from anyone; but the wide eyes and the permanent grin (and the embarrassing grooving-along to MC Hammer) would have driven me away from that firm in an instant.

I'm amazed that anyone fell for her.
