Stephen A. Wynn

Chairman and CEO, Wynn Resorts

"Stephen Wynn talks Resorts, Leadership, and Politics"

Casino magnate Stephen Wynn, chairman and chief executive officer of Wynn Resorts, told the June 8 Boston College Chief Executives Club he expects to open the Wynn Boston Harbor Resort in May 2019—despite legal challenges from the city of Somerville. "As I understand it, the mayor is morally opposed to it," Wynn said of his controversial $2.1 billion casino development.

Takeaway

Greater Boston Resort

I'm a developer...I never had any real confidence in casino gaming. What gets folks to put up with the inconvenience of air travel and all of the rest, is the non-casino stuff.

Takeaway

Workforce is the Asset

If employees feel that their place [of work] is the best, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Takeaway

Politics

Suppose we tell everybody in government to get together, show us how to save some money, be more efficient in your agency. And whatever you save us, you guys get 20% of it as a bonus. You’d see government shrink in two seconds.
