Measuring ERG maturity is a critical component of building a thriving and impactful ERG program. As ERGs grow and mature, so too do their activities, challenges, and needs. To meet these changing needs, organizations must be able to accurately assess ERG maturity and address any potential gaps that may exist.
Ergtopia’s ERG Maturity Model™ outlines core activities that ERGs typically engage in across four stages of maturity: Forming, Growing, Driving, and Transforming. Based on research and input from ERG leaders, program managers, and the ERG Advisory Board, our ERG Maturity Model™ provides a simple yet actionable framework for assessing and benchmarking ERG maturity.

Applying the ERG Maturity Model™
Please note that ERG maturity is not a strictly linear process and that some ERGs may be engaged in activities that span multiple stages. The intent behind the ERG Maturity Model™ is to provide high-level guidance to help ERG leaders and program managers better assess their ERG priorities and maximize positive impact.
