Our Co-Director Morgan Phillips has written a guest column for Third Sector magazine. We will publish in full here in a week or so, meanwhile, here is a snippet:
Medium and large charities, because of their bureaucracies, are not as agile as businesses of a similar size or smaller charities. They move slowly, especially in reaction to external changes and shocks; failing to react, to change, to innovate. It can occasionally be fatal for an organisation. This is not news to many in the third sector Iām sure, but the tortoise-like nature of some international aid charities is not the only reason they lack agility and suffer when the world moves.
