About the Authors

John Browne is the former CEO of British Petroleum (BP), a company he served successfully for 40 years. In 2007, he resigned his position following revelations by a British newspaper that he is gay. This incident, and the expressed relief he felt after publicly coming out, inspired Browne to encourage others to be more open about their sexuality.
