Eileen T. Flaherty is a longtime legal and compliance professional who is currently managing director of The Global Capital Group Ltd., a legal and regulatory consulting firm. She is also the author of a forthcoming novel entitled The Perilous Step, which draws on her experience rising from humble beginnings to a top job on merit in Washington, D.C. and senior roles in the derivatives and securities industry. Flaherty sat down with John Lothian News in Chicago to talk about the inspiration for her book, which is a fictionalization of her own life story – with names changed to protect the not-so-innocent.
