  • Team 7 Executive Summary
    Team 7 Executive Summary Between the 1950s and 2000s, the Gambino crime family was the most successful and feared organized crime family in the United States. Recent years, however, have seen the family relegated to the background. This report seeks to address the question: how did leadership style contribute to the declining influence of the New York Mafia? Starting from the 1930s, five major Italian-American Mafia crime organizations dominated crime in the New York City. The five organizations were later named as the Five Families, namely the Bonanno/Massino Family, Colombo Family, Gambino Family, Genovese Family and Lucchese Family, with the Gambinos as the most notorious mafia crime family. It was founded after the Castellammarese War of 1931 and was promoted by Carlo Gambino starting in 1957. Gambino’s regime was marked by his iron-fisted toughness and private lifestyle; it was upon these two pillars coupled by his criminal and business savvy that allowed Gambino to lead the family to dominance and made him almost untouchable to the FBI. Castellano had a natural ability as a business leader, but lacked the leadership qualities that were necessary to lead an organization as rooted in tradition as the Gambino family. Though he was the most successful economic leaders in the American Mafia, there was a major disconnect between himself and his employees. Ultimately, neglecting tradition and the “family” aspect of the organization led to his downfall. However, his impact stretched past his own tenure, as he left the organization in a more fractured state then when he arrived. Gotti took an entirely new approach through his irresponsible leadership style by working around core family rules and adopting his own personal idea of what a leader should be portrayed as specifically through his obsession with publicity and fame.

The RICO law was designed to go after mob bosses that were not able to be charged with murder or as intellectual authors of a murder because they were not the ones executing the plan. This law also allowed prosecutors to go after mobsters for crimes such as drug trafficking, extortion, labor racketeering, and other crimes that would usually be under the control of the mafia.
