Giving Tuesday Is an International Success. Creator Henry Timms Shares How They Did It

Giving Tuesday Is an International Success. Creator Henry Timms Shares How They Did It 9 Dec 2022 --- Henry Timms is CEO at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts and creator of GivingTuesday, the global philanthropic movement that has generated billions of dollars for good causes around the world. Timms credits Giving Tuesday’s success to its use of “new power.” New power is the opposite of top-down “old power”: It’s collaborative, open, and inclusive. Anyone, anywhere can adapt Giving Tuesday to suit their own giving goals, leading to a diversity of approaches like Giving Shoes Day (giving shoes to women going back into the workforce) or University of Michigan’s annual fundraiser, Giving Blue Day. This interview part of a series called “The New World of Work,” which explores how top-tier executives see the future and how their companies are trying to set themselves up for success. Each week, Adi will interview a leader on LinkedIn Live — and then share an inside look at those conversations and solicit questions for future discussions in a newsletter just for HBR subscribers.
