Mark Romig | Finding Ways to Give Back
Chad talks with Mark Romig (voice of the New Orleans Saints and Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer at New Orleans & Company) about a life spent giving back. He talks about growing up with 23 foster babies rotating through his house, why he looks for volunteer work on resumes when hiring, and how his parents modeled a life of service. Mark also explains how to find the right organization to volunteer with by matching your passion to a need, and why teamwork learned through sports or Greek life matters.
Key Takeaways:
Look deeper than surface level for who people really are - Mark checks if candidates volunteered, held leadership roles in Greek life, or gave back in any way because it shows they can be part of a team and think beyond themselves
Match your passion to an organization that needs help - Don't just pick any charity; find something that excites you based on your childhood, your skills, or what moves you, then reach out and offer your time
Growing up watching service teaches you to serve - Mark's parents took in 23 foster babies over the years while raising their own kids, showing him early that giving back is just what you do
