An astute dealmaker is not the same thing as a con man. Example: Hans Bishop sold (90% of) JUNO to CELG two years ago for $9B (#msg-137859642), which is very much more than JUNO would garner today. One year later, GRAIL, a company that will likely be acquired at some point, tapped Bishop for CEO (https://grail.com/press-releases/grail-announces-appointment-of-hans-bishop-as-chief-executive-officer-and-strengthens-leadership-team-and-board-of-directors-with-new-appointments/ ). p.s. GRAIL's latest PR: #msg-153887022.
