About the Book

In 2007, Australian-born MJ Greene reached a crossroad in her career. With a desire to do something new, exciting, and meaningful within another culture, she took the opportunity to work as general manager for one of the largest multinational organizations in Afghanistan. As Greene immersed herself into preparing for her new position, she had no idea that very soon, she would be mustering the courage to reveal the truth and stand up for what was right, regardless of the personal sacrifice.

Greene begins with the details of her journey as she left for Afghanistan as a fresh-faced subcontractor ready to help piece the country back together. But as she arrived in a hostile, ever-changing environment, she soon realized that she would need to rely on her instincts in order to survive. As she encountered daily work challenges that caused her to become suspicious that something was not right, Greene was led down a dangerous path lined with closely guarded secrets that forced her to rely on her moral compass for guidance.

A Conflict of Interest shares a true story of personal discovery as a woman living in war-torn Afghanistan must rely on her inner strength and resilience to challenge corruption, expose human rights violations, and help end discernible wrongdoing.

Customer Reviews

"A story told from the heart that truly demonstrates the challenges faced by a women in a high powered position in a corporate environment. A corporate environment in a war zone however presents itself with a whole lot of other challenges. What I found interesting is that in any corporate environment one will encounter the office politics and an element of unethical dealings and at times questionable 'corrupt' antics. The interesting part highlighted in MJ Greene experiences is that given the right environment it appears that those antics have a whole new meaning and intensity. It is a book that provides insight into 'business dealings' in a war torn country, insight into a culture/country far removed from the western world, insight into the challenges faced by a women determined to 'do the right thing' and insight into the power of intuition; trusting, listening, acting on intuition that can and will literally save and change your life. An insightful read."

"Wow what an amazing achievement to have been a western woman in Afghanistan at such a pivotal moment in history. It is an unusual and interesting take on the issues facing Afghanistan, neither an expose of women?s position or a war story, it is challenging, fascinating an interesting exploration of the corporate shenanigans that go on in covering up illegal activity, from what must be a fairly unique perspective of a western woman in a senior position."

I love the book and i relate too much.The author attempts to chronicle her life in a war torn country. She has all the courage to find for the truth and to do what is right which is a must for everyone to learn about. Courage.
