The Problem Clients Face
Many organisations have strong ESG and sustainability intentions, policies and public commitments, yet struggle to translate these into consistent day-to-day practice. ESG responsibility often sits in pockets, disconnected from decision-making, operations, incentives and risk management. Leaders lack a clear view of whether the organisation is actually set up to deliver on its ESG goals.
Why It Matters: Cost and Risk
When ESG is poorly operationalised, the risks escalate quickly: failure to deliver mandatory reporting, regulatory exposure, reputational damage from non-compliance, missed investment opportunities and internal cynicism about “tick-box” sustainability. Without a clear picture of organisational capability, firms risk investing in initiatives that don’t stick or failing to address gaps that undermine credibility with clients, regulators and staff.
The Solution
The Pittman & Martin ESG Fitness Check provides a structured, diagnostic health scan of your organisation’s ESG readiness and delivery capability. Using a targeted survey, it examines how ESG is understood, governed and enacted across the organisation — vertically through leadership and accountability, and horizontally across functions and teams.
