Influence: How to Use Philanthropy to Improve Corporate Performance; How to Gravitate from Professional Success to Social Consequence; How to Move from Family Disarray to Generational Cohesion

At the 92nd Street Y, the International Rescue Committee, and Lincoln Center, Reynold Levy raised well over $2 billon for these and other causes. As the President and then Chair of the AT&T Foundation, the Chair of the Nathan Cummings Foundation, the Chair of the Charles H. Revson Foundation, and as a consultant to wealthy families, he has influenced giving away several billion dollars. There are few better equipped to explain the importance—and impact—of philanthropy than Reynold Levy who helps audiences understand: - How to move from personal success to social consequence?

  • How to exercise leadership by volunteering, serving on Boards of Directors, and intelligently offering charitable contributions to institutions you admire and causes that need help?

  • How to utilize philanthropy to engage your spouse, parents, children and even close friends and colleagues to leave a legacy, to make an impact, to strengthen a family?

  • At corporations, employees may leave their valuables at home each morning when they leave for work. But they take their values with them to the office. How can firms recognize these values and appeal to them as a way to strengthen employee loyalty, enhance their brand, and become more attractive to customers?

Individual lives can be enriched and businesses can help the very places where their employees live and work. As an authority on these subjects, cues, clues, and practical advice will be offered by Levy with humor and humility.
