This book honours the contribution Professor Pascale Quester has made to academia and higher education, through her research, teaching, and leadership. It provides readers with a comprehensive, contemporary perspective on marketing practice with an emphasis on the role of marketing in making a difference. Organisations are interwoven with the society in which they operate and are thus commonly expected to shoulder some responsibility in advancing that society. While there has been significant academic and practitioner focus on corporate social responsibility (CSR), research is often limited to the organisational benefits and implementation of CSR initiatives. In contrast, this book presents a broader perspective, highlighting a variety of actors and approaches that are making a difference to their various stakeholder groups, specifically in the areas of sponsorship, social marketing and ethics, customers and brands, as well as university education and innovation.
