Digital Transformation in the Third Sector
Digital Transformation in the Third Sector
Digital transformation
Or maturity?
Stages of digital maturity
1. Rejecting (don’t want to engage in digital,
limited activity)
2. Experimenting (organic, chaotic activity,
willingness but no plan)
3. Organising (centralised under one function,
focus on marketing and communications)
4. Evolving (decentralised but with a clear
framework, digital enhances all functions,
income generation, service delivery)

Current State Aspiration
Have the courage to improve
Tips for improving maturity, now
1. Start by proving the value in what you do – measure
current state and aspirations.
2. Make cost neutral improvements to show impact.
3. Use your success to build relationships with
management.
4. Follow up with a case for gradual investment.
5. Ensure you have the right team in place to deliver.
6. Continue to focus on results, develop your offer, iterate.
Remember your heart
The unfair advantage of charities
• We are close to beneficiaries and their needs
• We have established networks and loyalty
• We are passionate about what we do
• Working in a lean way comes naturally
Enjoy the journey
