Autor John Studzinskien Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 sep 2025
"Made me really think about what it means to give, to care, to be generous." Sir Grayson Perry
Reclaim your individual impact with 'entrepreneurial giving'.
It's time to democratize generosity and impact so YOU can make a difference. Philanthropy isn't just about wealth - it's about creativity, passion, and using your unique talents to contribute to what you believe in. Visionary investor and humanitarian John Studzinski challenges the traditional notion that philanthropy is reserved for the ultra-rich, revealing how anyone, regardless of financial means, can become a force for change.
This groundbreaking book introduces entrepreneurial giving - a hands-on approach to philanthropy that harnesses skills, expertise, and resources. Through thought-provoking insights, A Talent for Giving offers a powerful new roadmap for impact. More than a guide, this book is a call to action. Whether you're an executive, an artist, a teacher, or an activist, your talents have the power to transform lives. The future of giving isn't about writing cheques - it's about reimagining what's possible. And it all starts with you.

Recenzii
The word 'philanthropy' can be loosely translated from Ancient Greek to 'love of humanity' - a notion that perfectly sums up this warm, timely book. A generous and profoundly insightful examination of what it means to give, Studzinski explores how we can harness our own unique and distinctive talents to improve the lives of others, and the world around us.
John Studzinski's inspiring new book reveals how rewarding entrepreneurial giving is. By taking action to support others, adapting our specialist knowledge and skills, and giving our time, encouragement and inspiration, we can all make a difference and create positive change for a person or community.
From one of our leading and celebrated philanthropists, a much welcome Guide to Giving that will inspire a new generation of changemakers to devote their time and energies to the service of others.
John Studzinski's invaluable A Talent for Giving describes the pilgrimage we can all follow to multiply our unique talents, transform ourselves, and promote the common good. A wonderful book that inspires the temerity of charity.
For me, philanthropy has never been about just giving money to good causes; it is about solving problems and improving things through good works, encouragement, and entrepreneurial thinking. John explores exactly this approach, and shows how meaningful giving goes far beyond the money.
A Talent for Giving is the handbook kids need today. It's not a boring lecture. It's a simple plan for finding ways to give in your life. It inspired me to create a new fundraiser at our school in California, and I bet it will help you to give, or give more. You could start by giving this book to a friend!
Saint Paul famously said that 'God loves a cheerful giver'. I can imagine no more cheerful giver - nor better guide to giving - than John Studzinski, whose splendid book shows us how to find our talents, take them out of hiding, and invest them in making the world a better one. A wonderful breath of hope!
Full of wisdom and insight.
This book is full of wisdom and warmth. It will inspire deep reflection and result in precious new insights, as ancient wisdom is shown to be central to meeting the needs of today. Readers will find themselves challenged, moved and ignited into action.

Blending practical guidance and a true sense of 'the good', John Studzinski provides a thoughtful and motivating read for anyone seeking to live with greater empathy, humility, and contribution to the world around them.
John doesn't just talk about impact, he lives it out. Being particularly passionate about human dignity and how art plays a role in restoring it, I'm delighted this book is coming out. It's a timely reminder that generosity isn't limited to wealth, and that no matter your background or struggles, you can use what you have for the good of others. I'd recommend this to all young leaders and creatives, especially those from underrepresented backgrounds.
A Talent for Giving will make every reader wiser. With beautiful, straightforward and searching language it tells us how everyone can change the world, one step at the time. I love that idea.

Whether you're building a career, a company, or a life of purpose, the lessons here will resonate. It is a road map to the good life.
