Newest team member, John Jennings, co-lead Director and Executive Search practice, gets into the holiday spirit hosting a pancake breakfast for the WATSON group to celebrate their support of the Covenant House. Each year Covenant House provides homeless youth with backpacks full of gifts at their annual Christmas party. The WATSON team went above and beyond raising money and collecting items and non-perishable food donations. John, a member of their Capital Campaign Cabinet, was only too happy to don an apron and flip flapjacks for the team.
