though the data were not collected with this analysis in mind, all dimensions of the model (except social responsiveness) were identified in the organisation. Social responsiveness was difficult to determine which may be due to issues noted above. Secondly, the project sought to assess whether or not the CSR stage of development could be identified within the organisation. Positioning the organisation within the 3-phase model was relatively straightforward and, therefore within the CSR cultural grasp phase. However, pinpointing the exact stage of development within the 7-stage model was far more difficult. Using Maon’s et al.’s (2010) dimensions, complemented by the stage descriptors, the organisation’s stage appears to straddle two stages (i.e., Self-protecting and Compliance-seeking). However, the data show that certain sites or functions might lie at other stages of development. As previously noted, managers often seek models that are simple to use and offer easy interaction (Browning, 2010), so the three phase model may be a good starting point for an organisation of this type, at least initially.Finally, the paper sought to determine strategies that could further the organisation’s CSR development. The model has allowed a comprehensive audit to take place (Ditlev-Simonsen & Gottschalk,2011; Maon et al., 2009) and to assess where the organisation is lagging behind in CSR development i.e. Transparency and Reporting and Stakeholder Relationships. It is clear the organisation needs to work carefully on these two factors to develop them further. This could be facilitated by better communication between managers and employees (and visitors), a better sense of cohesion (i.e. stronger ‘‘clique”) between all types of staff, and by building on the values of the organisation.
