Stepping Back to Study the Highly Successful CEO Naveen Jain: Efficient Altruism at Its Finest
Thursday, October 8th, 2009These days intelligent philanthropism is definitely as necessary as ever. You have probably seen mention of Mr. Naveen Jain’s name as being the CEO and co-founder of Intelius, Inc. the predictive intelligence market leaders. Well beyond having his ranking on the Forbes 400 Richest in America list 2000, this enterprising business leader has been given several reputable awards including the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award, the Albert Einstein Technology Medal, and the WSA Industry Achievement Award. But that is certainly not the end of the story. This is because Naveen Jain and his kin are likewise as zealous about philanthropy and will seek to give aid whenever possible. Kids truly incorporate humanity’s most important resource. Naveen Jain also regards children as constituting the core of his enterprises, and he takes advantage of every chance available to help them. This, obviously, is the primary reason why he is intensely taking advantage of every chance available to him to lend a helping hand wherever it is even remotely workable. Hence, Naveen Jain, his family and the employees at Intelius dedicate their time to charities such as the Indian American Education Foundation, Child Rights and You (CRY), and the University of Washington. As is to be expected, they will offer plenty of material aid but most importantly, they pledge their time and care to the most needy and susceptible children. Naveen Jain also gives aid to the Children’s Hospital, intent on improving children’s health, too.
With Naveen Jain being a graduate of the Indian Institute of Technology and XLRI Jamshedpur, it is not at all surprising that education constitutes a key pivot point in his philanthropic operations. This includes causes and charities local, state, and nationwide. As a result, Intelius and its CEO are involved in aiding voluntary entities and establishments such as the Rotary Club, the Vedic Cultural Center and the Overlake Service League.
Providing for the world’s destitute is another important litmus test for Naveen Jain and his family and it is of no interest at all to him whether it is a kid in the Sahel or Peru, or an old homeless gentleman from Vancouver or Marseilles needing aid. While he is intensely mindful that the goal of feeding every destitute person in the world can seem to be an impossible task, he also believes that the unachievable can factually become reachable when the whole world works in concert. If this CEO should really have his way, there will be a certain end to impoverishment and malnourishment everywhere in the future.
You might imagine that as the head of a prosperous company plus being a devoted family man would leave him little free time for benevolent works. But he sees to it that all of his beneficent enterprises can rely on all the assistance he can plausibly come up with. Indeed this earnestly idealistic businessman is most definitely more than merely an ordinary business leader. He is, in fact, a remarkable citizen and an exceptional community benefactor.
