Bill Cummings on Becoming a Titan of Business and Philanthropy

Bill Cummings has transformed lives through business and charity. He built a real estate giant in Cummings Properties and successfully trained and onboarded his successor. When he exited the company, Bill had accrued billions of dollars to his name. Then, he decided to give everything back. He founded the Cummings Foundation, a charitable organization that now has $2 billion in assets, and signed the Giving Pledge, an initiative led by Bill Gates and Warren Buffet where business owners pledge to give away their fortunes to philanthropic causes. Bill sat down with host Robert Glazer to talk about his career, the importance of developing talent and why successful people have a responsibility to give back. Bill is the author of the 2018 book Starting Small and Making It Big. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
