Structuring for digital success
Why is this relevant, now?
- Pressure to sharpen up our digital game is mounting from our
funders and supporters
- Digital skills and literacy are cited as one of the major barriers
to digital ambition and growth within the sector (Nesta, 2017)
- The paucity of literature in this area points to an urgent need
for our study
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess

Our research
- Some desk research
- A survey of nearly 60 organisations
- In depth interviews with ten digital leaders
@katiprice

Who did we survey?
Where were our respondents from?
Who did we survey?
- 43% small (10-100 people)
- 36% medium-sized (100-500 people)
- 19% large (over 500 people)
- 2% very small orgs (under 10 people)
What size organisations did we survey?
Types of team structure
Initially, we thought digital team structures might look like this...

Stages of digital maturity
The Digital Maturity Model 5.0, Forrester Research, Inc., 2017

#digitalsuccess
#MW18
The virtuous circle of digital maturity
- Digital will have even greater impact in the later segments of
digital maturity
- Those that are willing to invest more in digital are seeing higher
levels of digital maturity, and moving towards ‘differentiator’
status
- It is a virtuous circle: the appetite for innovation is higher
among those that invest more in digital, who are therefore
seeing better results
And...
- How organisations structure digital responsibility is an
indicator of their digital maturity
Mapping stages of maturity onto team structures

#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Structuring the digital team
- Most of us are gathering digital resource in one location (centralised)
which is the right decision right now
- The core functions for digital teams now, are most likely content,
social media and digital infrastructure
- The structures of digital teams are evolving as they draw in other
functions, such as marketing, visitor experience and publishing.
- In future, specialist functions, such as content and product
development, will still exist in small central teams in a holistic model.

Structuring the digital team
‘Digital teams are part of a shifting
culture rather than a permanent
structural fixture.’
Dafydd James and Kati Price
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Who heads up digital?
It depends on the digital agenda and what you want to achieve, for
example:
- CDO – driving digital transformation
- CXO – delivering a holistic customer experience
- CMO – using digital for marketing and communications
- CTO – streamlining tech infrastructure
- CPO – developing a product culture
- CCO – championing content whatever the platform
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Who heads up digital?
‘Digital should NEVER report to Marketing. I’m
yet to meet a Marketing team who fully
understand the breadth and depth of the
need for digital in a service.’
Zak Mensah, Head of Transformation, Bristol Culture, UK
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Where should digital sit?
‘This an unanswerable question – it's like
asking where a sofa should go in a
living room. Put it where it fits & works.’


Danny Birchall, Digital Content Manager, Wellcome
Collection, UK
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Location and reporting
- Where digital sits depends on how you define digital and what you
want to achieve
- Good news is that most of those we surveyed agree or slightly
agree that they’re in the right location
- We all believe digital should ideally report directly to the top of
the organisation
- More important than the model being used, is the digital literacy
and advocacy of the person that teams report into
- Having a vision for digital and defined success metrics will help
identify the right location for a digital team, or teams
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Location and reporting
‘There’s no right place in the org chart for digital as it
operates both a vertical and as a horizontal and has
blurred edges. It’s not a traditional horizontal support
function like HR or finance, nor a traditional vertical
like conservation or education.’
John Stack, Digital Director, Science Museum Group, UK
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Aligning for success
What is digital success?
➔ audience engagement and increasing digital reach
➔ driving organisational change through digital transformation
➔ improving business processes and infrastructure
➔ distributing knowledge and research
➔ building brand awareness
➔ delivering on commercial goals
➔ and...
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Aligning for success
- But, we didn’t see many well-defined visions for success among the
organisations we surveyed
- Even where they do exist, these visions are not necessarily well
communicated and understood by the whole team
- We saw there is still a project-based mentality which will hinder
organisations’ digital evolution from moving beyond project metrics
towards a product culture
- Those with the clearest definitions of success had aligned their
digital objectives around those of the organisation
- They are focussed on outcomes (rather than outputs), with
measurable, well-defined goals, using data to inform their decision
making
Aligning for success
'The [digital] vision should ultimately support
the vision/mission for the organisation. A
digital strategy should never be separate from
the overall strategy, but a means to achieving.’
Ros Lawler, Digital Director, Tate, UK
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Funding
- Budgets are not large enough to serve our organisations’ digital
ambitions
- It is therefore vital for digital leaders to make the case for
continuous (rather than continual) investment in digital activity
and infrastructure
- We must manage organisational expectation of what is realistic
with existing, as well as with future budgets
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Funding
‘Without adequate revenue to invest in
ongoing digital development, attention and
effort will constantly be pulled in the
direction of highly visible digital initiatives
that might be more opportunistic than they
are strategic.’
Oliver Vicars-Harris, Consultant, UK
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Size of the digital team
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Size of the digital team
- There is no perfect ratio for optimal digital team size : size of the
organisation
- The optimal size is most likely to be determined by the number
and complexity of functions overseen by a digital team
- 75% cited a lack of digital resource relative to the organisation’s
long-term ambition which, we believe, is stifling our digital
maturity
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Size of the digital team
‘In my experience a small team can get a lot
more done – don't be concerned about
building an empire.’
Lucie Paterson, Product Manager, Australian
Centre for the Moving Image, Australia
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Skills
- Despite being cited among the most important skills, technical
leadership and data management and analysis are the most
underrepresented skills on digital teams
- Content, product management and social media skills are all
relatively well represented on most digital teams, but we must
continuously invest in these core competencies
- Consider now the future skills needed to support emerging
technologies
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
Skills
‘Spend as much time as you can on hiring and
bringing the right people into your team
when you get the opportunity, one great hire
can be transformational, one poor hire can be
a disaster.’
Piers Jones, Chief Digital and Product Officer,
Natural History Museum, UK
@katiprice
@dafjames
#digitalsuccess
#MW18
None of the organisations we surveyed have genuinely reached the final
segment of digital maturity.
We therefore need to:
➔ align digital with organisational ambitions
➔ define and communicate visions for digital success
➔ ensure organisation-wide digital literacy
➔ invest in core skills and infrastructure
➔ invest in technical leadership and data analysis skills
➔ use data and insights to inform strategy
➔ remunerate our staff properly to attract a talented workforce

Structuring for digital success

  • 1. STRUCTURING FOR DIGITAL SUCCESS Kati Price, Head of Digital Media and Publishing, V&A Dafydd James, Head of Digital Media, Amgueddfa Cymru - National Museum Wales @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18 Museums and the Web 2018
  • 3. Why is this relevant, now? - Pressure to sharpen up our digital game is mounting from our funders and supporters - Digital skills and literacy are cited as one of the major barriers to digital ambition and growth within the sector (Nesta, 2017) - The paucity of literature in this area points to an urgent need for our study @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 4. Our research - Some desk research - A survey of nearly 60 organisations - In depth interviews with ten digital leaders @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 5. Who did we survey? Where were our respondents from?
  • 6. Who did we survey? - 43% small (10-100 people) - 36% medium-sized (100-500 people) - 19% large (over 500 people) - 2% very small orgs (under 10 people) What size organisations did we survey?
  • 7. Types of team structure Initially, we thought digital team structures might look like this... Centralised DecentralisedOutsourced
  • 8. Types of team structure Centralised Decentralised Hub and spoke Holistic Outsourced @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 9. Stages of digital maturity The Digital Maturity Model 5.0, Forrester Research, Inc., 2017 @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 10. The virtuous circle of digital maturity - Digital will have even greater impact in the later segments of digital maturity - Those that are willing to invest more in digital are seeing higher levels of digital maturity, and moving towards ‘differentiator’ status - It is a virtuous circle: the appetite for innovation is higher among those that invest more in digital, who are therefore seeing better results And... - How organisations structure digital responsibility is an indicator of their digital maturity
  • 11. Mapping stages of maturity onto team structures @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 12. Structuring the digital team - Most of us are gathering digital resource in one location (centralised) which is the right decision right now - The core functions for digital teams now, are most likely content, social media and digital infrastructure - The structures of digital teams are evolving as they draw in other functions, such as marketing, visitor experience and publishing. - In future, specialist functions, such as content and product development, will still exist in small central teams in a holistic model. @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 13. Structuring the digital team ‘Digital teams are part of a shifting culture rather than a permanent structural fixture.’ Dafydd James and Kati Price @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 14. Who heads up digital? It depends on the digital agenda and what you want to achieve, for example: - CDO – driving digital transformation - CXO – delivering a holistic customer experience - CMO – using digital for marketing and communications - CTO – streamlining tech infrastructure - CPO – developing a product culture - CCO – championing content whatever the platform @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 15. Who heads up digital? ‘Digital should NEVER report to Marketing. I’m yet to meet a Marketing team who fully understand the breadth and depth of the need for digital in a service.’ Zak Mensah, Head of Transformation, Bristol Culture, UK @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 16. Where should digital sit? ‘This an unanswerable question – it's like asking where a sofa should go in a living room. Put it where it fits & works.’ 
 Danny Birchall, Digital Content Manager, Wellcome Collection, UK @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 17. Location and reporting - Where digital sits depends on how you define digital and what you want to achieve - Good news is that most of those we surveyed agree or slightly agree that they’re in the right location - We all believe digital should ideally report directly to the top of the organisation - More important than the model being used, is the digital literacy and advocacy of the person that teams report into - Having a vision for digital and defined success metrics will help identify the right location for a digital team, or teams @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 18. Location and reporting ‘There’s no right place in the org chart for digital as it operates both a vertical and as a horizontal and has blurred edges. It’s not a traditional horizontal support function like HR or finance, nor a traditional vertical like conservation or education.’ John Stack, Digital Director, Science Museum Group, UK @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 19. Aligning for success What is digital success? ➔ audience engagement and increasing digital reach ➔ driving organisational change through digital transformation ➔ improving business processes and infrastructure ➔ distributing knowledge and research ➔ building brand awareness ➔ delivering on commercial goals ➔ and... @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 20. Aligning for success - But, we didn’t see many well-defined visions for success among the organisations we surveyed - Even where they do exist, these visions are not necessarily well communicated and understood by the whole team - We saw there is still a project-based mentality which will hinder organisations’ digital evolution from moving beyond project metrics towards a product culture - Those with the clearest definitions of success had aligned their digital objectives around those of the organisation - They are focussed on outcomes (rather than outputs), with measurable, well-defined goals, using data to inform their decision making
  • 21. Aligning for success 'The [digital] vision should ultimately support the vision/mission for the organisation. A digital strategy should never be separate from the overall strategy, but a means to achieving.’ Ros Lawler, Digital Director, Tate, UK @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 22. Funding - Budgets are not large enough to serve our organisations’ digital ambitions - It is therefore vital for digital leaders to make the case for continuous (rather than continual) investment in digital activity and infrastructure - We must manage organisational expectation of what is realistic with existing, as well as with future budgets @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 23. Funding ‘Without adequate revenue to invest in ongoing digital development, attention and effort will constantly be pulled in the direction of highly visible digital initiatives that might be more opportunistic than they are strategic.’ Oliver Vicars-Harris, Consultant, UK @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 24. Size of the digital team @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 25. Size of the digital team - There is no perfect ratio for optimal digital team size : size of the organisation - The optimal size is most likely to be determined by the number and complexity of functions overseen by a digital team - 75% cited a lack of digital resource relative to the organisation’s long-term ambition which, we believe, is stifling our digital maturity @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 26. Size of the digital team ‘In my experience a small team can get a lot more done – don't be concerned about building an empire.’ Lucie Paterson, Product Manager, Australian Centre for the Moving Image, Australia @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 27. Skills - Despite being cited among the most important skills, technical leadership and data management and analysis are the most underrepresented skills on digital teams - Content, product management and social media skills are all relatively well represented on most digital teams, but we must continuously invest in these core competencies - Consider now the future skills needed to support emerging technologies @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 28. Skills ‘Spend as much time as you can on hiring and bringing the right people into your team when you get the opportunity, one great hire can be transformational, one poor hire can be a disaster.’ Piers Jones, Chief Digital and Product Officer, Natural History Museum, UK @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 29. None of the organisations we surveyed have genuinely reached the final segment of digital maturity. We therefore need to: ➔ align digital with organisational ambitions ➔ define and communicate visions for digital success ➔ ensure organisation-wide digital literacy ➔ invest in core skills and infrastructure ➔ invest in technical leadership and data analysis skills ➔ use data and insights to inform strategy ➔ remunerate our staff properly to attract a talented workforce Future of digital teams @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 30. Future of digital teams @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
  • 31. Future of digital teams ‘Digital teams are still in their infancy in the sector. We're building the future digital teams right now and should share, share and share some more.’ Zak Mensah, Head of Transformation, Bristol Culture, UK @katiprice @dafjames #digitalsuccess #MW18
