How do we evolve the donor experience to be more streamlined, frictionless, and ultimately faster?

Cath Stone

Executive Director of Donor Engagement & Experience, Lifeblood

Transforming time culture at Lifeblood

Cath Stone approached Donna McGeorge seeking a fresh way to improve the donor experience, not just by shaving seconds off processes, but by shifting mindsets around time itself.

Rather than conducting time-in-motion studies, Lifeblood wanted something more inspiring and sustainable. What mattered most was helping their people recognise that a donor’s time is valuable, and so is their own.

Donna’s “It’s About Time” program sparked a mindset shift that reshaped how teams think about capacity, energy and what really matters.

Key outcomes:

Shifting from “add more” to “do less, better” thinking
Reframing time as a limited, valuable resource
Building awareness of personal capacity and wellbeing
Embedding behaviour-first culture over KPI-first systems

“Donna brought an energy that challenged our team to think differently. Our productivity has gone up, and we’ve shifted from a KPI culture to one focused on behaviour and experience.”
