PART
FOUR: DE LA CROIX, THE ENTREPRENEUR EXTRAORDINAIRE, CEO AND
BUSINESSMAN
Those magnificent accomplishments in art, culture,
writing, teaching, producing and directing musicals and plays did not refrain
him from making his mark and influencing many groups, organizations and peers in
additional demanding and
competitive arenas, careers, professions and endeavors, such as in the
hospitality industry, where he created, designed, managed and owned
internationally famous and some of the world’s best hotels, resorts and floor
show restaurants.
Part of his business as an international
lawyer, he
practiced international public law and served as senior state advisor and legal
counsel to heads of states, cabinet members, ministers and rulers. In
addition, he served as vice president, president, CEO, chairman and/or
PROPRIETOR of several world class organizations, hotels, resorts, restaurants,
corporations and international multi-million Dollar enterprises and turn key
projects in the US, Europe and Asia, to name a few:
Le Marquis de Rochambeau Corporation, Le Paramount
Incorporated, Chez Nous Incorporated, Paris Bisou Incorporated, Music and Arts
Society of America Incorporated, American Council for University Planning and
Academic Excellence Incorporated, The Academician Magazine, De La Croix
Productions International Incorporated, De Lafayette Publishers Group,
Intercontinental Hotels Consortium/Panorama International Incorporated, World
Presidium of Certified Head Founders Incorporated, Pageant Election Committee of
Mrs. Washington, World Shao Lin Ji Shindokai Federation Incorporated, IBBA
International Incorporated, American
Hospitality Institute Incorporated, etc.
How good is he in business?
Let’s see. Just one year, before he arrived to the
United States, de La Croix was already a celebrity and a very wealthy man. He has already sold art for over 20
million Dollars, earned more than 2 million Dollars in writing royalties with a
record of 250 million Dollars in sales in the hospitality industry and
international businesses in Europe and the Middle and Near East. So, he did very
well.
How much did he earn from the sales of 97 published
books and practicing international law? God knows!
A good businessman? You bet! But not a“ faceless
businessman without a heart” as he frequently explains.
His philosophy and understanding of good business can
be “easily explained” according to him-of course- He said “ There is room
for everybody in this world. Do not take the place of two. While you are eating,
share your food with others. If you cannot afford to buy food, do not steal it.
Draw a nice picture of it and hope that somebody will pass by and use it as an
expensive gift wrapping paper.”
PART
FIVE: DE LA CROIX, AMERICA’S LEADING AUTHORITY ON HIGHER EDUCATION

postsecondary education, adult learning, colleges and universities rating,
curricula evaluation, international comparative study and evaluation of academic
programs worldwide, analysis of academic life impact on scholars in foreign
