Even though Steve Wynn is a billionaire, he still care about other people who is unfortunate. Each individual human being possesses a unique, highly developed, and sensitive perception of variety. Thus, Wynn is endowed with a natural capability for implementing mental and external physical selectivity.
A half-year mystery for 4,000 families in
southern Nevada was at last solved when casino mogul, Steve Wynn, made it known
that he’s made the anonymous donation of $2 million to the United Way of
Southern Nevada.
The first round of families received $500 bank
gift cards before Christmas 2011 and another 2,000 families received the
donations Saturday in Las Vegas. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the second highest among the 49 metropolitan areas with a 2000 census population of 1 million or more, the unemployment rate for the Las Vegas area was 11.6 percent in April.
The
metro area of Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, Calif., had the highest, at
11.7 percent. Wynn has put a small portion of that money
back into this community of struggling blue-collar workers. Many of the
families who received the $500 gift earned roughly $16,000 or less last year. Las
Vegas business leaders said the donation wasn’t unusual. They pointed to this
desert city’s many charitable and wealthy residents.
It is shown through Wynn action that he is a true leader. Besides material success, he has proven the human element in him is more than just that and displayed great social responsibility. With this, he has indirectly cultivated this value in his employees and definitely a good role model for them.

Who is a leader? A leader is the person who control things by position. Here's the key: there's an energy to leadership. There's a passion, a level of connectedness that leaders have with others. People like Las Vegas developer Steve Wynn, who defines energy, vision, and relationship.
In 1989, Wynn decided to test his vision and put it into action by building the Mirage and then Treasure Island. After proving his success, he built the extravaganza icon of the Bellagio. Wynn started a $12 billion building his wonderful works such as the Wynn and the Encore. Time Magazine placed him as one of the "World's 100 Most Influential People."
Wynn has a business
sense and extraordinary eye for details as well as energy for passion. Steve Wynn key traits would be
dedication, hard work, detail oriented, a problem
solver, creative, and innovative. He is included in a category of transactional leadership traits and behaviours.
Steve is a problem solver, creative and innovative where we can see from his quote:
I have developer's disease. I love to
sit at a drafting table and draw plans
for hotels, wrestling with problems of
traffic and the flow of people. That's
what turns me on. -Steve Wynn
Wynn is also a detail oriented person. We can see it based on the Q&A between Business Insider and Steve Wynn which he can still remember the building structured:
BI: How is the progress on the Cotai casino project?
SW: I remember studying a chart 2 months ago with my
colleagues that showed, for example, if you're interested in this, the
high-rise has columns on 36-foot centers and there are 40 of them. There
are 40 structural base that are used for suites and rooms. The regular
base, 2 rooms, and sometimes 2 structural base were used for super
deluxe suites. The building is 98 feet wide. It's extremely
deep because the rooms are 45 feet deep with an 8-foot hallway, which is
-- you only see 8-foot hallway in buildings. While in Cotai, our
typical hallway is 8-foot wide and 7-foot tall. So what happens is that
we have 40 columns, 40 structural base and we have 4 of them across the
building. There's one on each outside window and 2 on the interior.
