YOUR FIRST HIRE

Your first hire represents a new stage in your philanthropy, and sets it in a new direction. It is, simply, the most important staffing decision you will make. What can help you get it right?

First, trust is the single most important criterion. All philanthropy is personal, not just for you and your family, but also for your staff. A lawyer or wealth manager need not share your passions to give you good advice about your legal or investment decisions, but that’s not the case with the person who will help you give away your money. Whether you are envisioning your new hire as a strategic thought partner, or expect him or her to play a more execution-oriented role, that person’s values and beliefs need to be strongly aligned with yours. Otherwise, you risk ending up in a messy and inevitably unproductive tangle.
