Journal of Philanthropy

Very chuffed to see that the special "Dialogues" edition of JPM on MrBeast and philanthropy that I provided the central pillar article for makes a prominent appearance in the Editor's Choice for 2024. It was really great to work on, so I'm glad people seem to have enjoyed it!

🌟 Incredibly honored to have our work selected for the Journal of Philanthropy’s 2024 Editor’s Choice! 🙏 Thank you to Georg von Schnurbein and Sufina Ahmad MBE for your thought provoking article on navigating leadership in philanthropic organizations in turbulent times. 💡 It inspired us to reflect on #governance, #ethics, and #voice for how nonprofits simultaneously balance the tension of navigating funders and beneficiaries' needs. ⛵ In our article, we propose a sailboat analogy, to show nonprofits being flexible and adaptable to navigate the 'winds' of diverse needs. 😃 Thank you to Juri Hoedemakers (Drs. Court Jester), Philine van Overbeeke and Lucas Meijs for the collaboration. 🎉 Congratulations to the other authors featured this year!

📣 NEW article 📣 Artification-Based #Philanthropy at Ornellaia 👉 Artification-based philanthropy is positioned as a strategic tool to enhance brand authenticity and address the brand paradox. This paper investigates the role of artification-based philanthropy in enhancing #brand #authenticity and addressing the luxury brand paradox through the case study of Ornellaia's Vendemmia d’artista project.  Through in-depth qualitative interviews with managers and analysis of internal documents, the authors investigated the Vendemmia d’artista project as an excellent example of how different initiatives can overcome this contradiction. The authors outline the proper use of artification-based philanthropy in sectors where brand authenticity is essential for gaining legitimacy among the public and stakeholders. ✒️ Written by Maria Cristina Cito (SDA Bocconi) and Vittoria Veronesi (SDA Bocconi) 📑 It's published open access, see: https://lnkd.in/eEbjf55U 📚 This article is part of the special issue "Arts Philanthropy: When marketing helps individual and societal well-being" edited by Michela Addis (Università degli Studi Roma Tre) and Andrea Rurale (Università Bocconi). #BrandIdentity #Paradox #Art #BrandStrategy #Strategy

📣 NEW article 📣 Incorporating artistic elements in luxury #fashion. Luxury fashion brands can use several #artification strategies to strengthen their connection with the #art world. Artification is a concept that identifies how art transforms objects, practices and brands through an infusion of artistic value. Using theory, several stages of the artification process can be identified. This article analyses how these stages reflect the brands’ historical evolution and strategic investments in artification, particularly in response to market threats. 👉 The study suggests that artification is increasingly seen as a viable and significant strategy for luxury fashion brands to differentiate themselves in a highly competitive global market, foster cultural value and enhance prestige. It also underscores the importance of strategic foresight in determining how and when companies should integrate artification into their business models, signalling that successfully navigating this process will likely gain a competitive edge in both #cultural and #economic terms. ✒️ Written by Piergiacomo Mion Dalle Carbonare, Marco Luchetti, Andrea Rurale, Elisa Fanin. 📑 It's published open access, see: https://lnkd.in/e-b_EVZR 📚 This article is part of the special issue "Arts Philanthropy: When marketing helps individual and societal well-being" edited by Michela Addis (Università degli Studi Roma Tre) and Andrea Rurale (Università Bocconi). #Art #Philanthropy #Marketing #Society #Brand #Fashion #Authenticity

📣Reflect and Comment📣 The Journal of Philanthropy and Marketing hosts Dialogue issues to stimulate discussion and debate around trending third-sector and/or #philanthropy-based themes. The series starts with a central pillar article that introduces the theme. After that, individuals (#academics and #practitioners) can react via commentaries, reflections, or reviews. Recent Dialogues awaiting commentary papers: 🔎 Engaging with #stakeholders and empowering #communities. ✒️ The central pillar article is written by Janis Petzinger, Ph.D. and Tobias Jung. 👉 See: https://lnkd.in/euE9X6QP 🔎 Fostering #diversity and #inclusion within #philanthropic organisations. ✒️ The central pillar article is written by Maja Spanu and Laetitia Gill. See: https://lnkd.in/eEmVFqEW This initiative aims to closely examine current thinking, praxis, and ‘assumed wisdom’ within fields of philanthropy; to assess the risks and rewards of using marketing tools to help develop philanthropic practice; set an agenda for future avenues of research; and share generative, stimulating, challenging ideas through a unique format of open peer commentary. For more information, see: https://lnkd.in/ei7ifnQP

Would be great to hear from someone involved in how #relationalphilanthropy and/or #trustbasedphilanthropy empower communities of practice. What are the opportunities of engaging more deeply with reciprocity, what are the challenges, and what did Tobias and I miss in our article? This is a great chance to contribute to a great journal and help us bridge the academia-practice gap.

💬 📣 Open call for comments on 'Engaging with #stakeholders and #empowering #communities'. As part of this Dialogue Series, we are looking for insights and reflections on the themes presented by Janis Petzinger, Ph.D. and Tobias Jung in their central pillar piece. For instance: 🔎 What conditions are required for truly integrated collaboration to achieve greater #impact? 🔎 To what extent can communities of practice be developed, sustained, and empowered? 🔎 Or should we also stick to a top-down approach? 📑 Given the size of #philanthropy, it seems obvious to collaborate with other organisations to be as effective as possible, pool resources, have a stronger voice, and learn. Yet too often, #collaborations do not move beyond ad hoc informal relationships and project-based cooperation. In this dialogue series, we invite individuals to reflect on the points raised by Petzinger and Jung. ✒️ Commentaries could explore critical perspectives on building and measuring #trust in philanthropic #partnerships, strategies for fostering reciprocity between funders and grantees, or approaches to balancing donor priorities with community needs. To open the Dialogue Series, follow: https://lnkd.in/euE9X6QP 🤝 Dialogue issues are a means of fostering more urgent and lively contributions to contemporary philanthropic debates than the usual paper publication process. Regarding style, JPM is both an interdisciplinary and practitioner-minded journal. Reader-friendly clarity and accessibility is, therefore, a key aim. #Philanthropy #Grants #Funding #Donation #NGO
