You can't help but be impressed by John White‐head's resume. There's his 38‐year climb up Goldman, Sachs & Co., to the position of co‐chairman. Then there's his three‐year post as deputy secretary of state for the Reagan administration, along with his current position, chairman of AEA Investors in New York. But what's really striking about Whitehead's resume is the lengthy list of volunteer organizations on which he serves. Currently the chairman of 10 nonprofit boards—including the United Nations Association, the Andrew Mellon Foundation, the Asia Society, Youth for Understanding, and the Greater New York Councils/Boy Scouts of America—and a trustee of numerous others, Whitehead has been described as the consummate nonprofit board member.
