From what I've understand, upper management at Walgreens was very skeptical of Theranos but the CEO was very enamored with Elizabeth Holmes and wouldn't listen to anything negative his staff was telling him.

- roywiggins 8y agoI think some people just have a reality distortion field they can project, it works best in person, and the CEO spent more time in hers than everyone else at the company. It's the reason why nobody finds a con at all convincing when it's told second-hand. Being conventionally attractive is probably very helpful but I bet the bar is higher for women would-be con artists than men.
