The essential guide to philanthropy - what it is, how it works, and why anyone can become an entrepreneurial philanthropist. A Talent for Giving offers a fresh perspective on philanthropy and its related topics. Gently provocative at times, it challenges orthodoxies in order to stimulate a creative approach and encourage readers to examine their individual strengths, passions, and motivation. In particular, John Studzinski debunks the myth that philanthropy is essentially a matter of rich people donating large sums of money for capital projects. One of the central tenets of the book is that we all have talents that can be used to help others, regardless of our financial situation - time, skills, wisdom or resources. Each chapter covers one of the ?tools' in the philanthropic toolbox: · Time · Talent · Treasure · Ties · Technology · Trust · Temperature (anger at injustices in the world) · Testimony (persuasive communication of one's convictions) Including broader discussions on philanthropy and insights from high-profile figures, such as: politicians, business leaders, creative professionals, and those who have benefited from philanthropy themselves, this book encourages and guides readers to assemble their own philanthropic skillset to engage with entrepreneurial philanthropy in a meaningful and practical way.
