The Godfather of Las Vegas - Executive Recruiting for Casinos/Gaming and High Tech (By Referral Only Please)
Tis the Season: The Godfather on Charity - Founded my executive recruiting company 20 years ago on the premise of donating a portion of each executive placement to charity. This quarter we are focused on Gigi’s Playhouse, Catholic Charities, Make-A-Wish and Noah's Animal House. Given the number of cold calls and "asks" this holiday season, here are my views on charity. First, "To whom much is given...much is required." Luke 12:48. Or as my Dad used to say, "Those that take the elevator to the top have an obligation to send it back down for everyone else." The happiest people are the givers, not the takers. Second, my primary focus is charity requests from my clients. Why? Because these are the companies and executives that have supported my business for 20 years. If nothing else, I’m the most loyal person you have ever met. That does not mean the other 3,500 registered non-profits are not worthy. I'm sure they are wonderful; however my focus is about a dozen national and local charities where I feel my financial support has an impact. Third, my focus is on charities organizations that support children and animals. Why? Because they did not pick their parents. You have to go with what touches your heart. Wishing you and yours the best holiday season ever. God bless!
