Prioritizing ESG Topics

Leading ESG Indicators Survey

Thank you for participating! The survey should take 10-15 minutes (the first ESG director completed it in 9 minutes).

Think of the 100 KPIs (we call them Key Sustainability Indicators) in this survey as defining the actions companies like yours take to gain value from ESG. Scott Tew (VP Sustainability, Trane Technologies) likes to say ESG Navigator’s Key Sustainability Indicators:

“define what good, better, best look like – and what’s expected of us as we progress”

Since 2015, over 80 major companies have shaped, tested, and refined these 100 Key Sustainability Indicators, organized as follows:

  • Four sections: E + S + G + Strategy – 60% Governance and Strategy; 40% Environment and Social.
  • Four stages of maturity – a tough rating scale (no company is fully stage 4 today).

ESG PRIORITIZATION

Identify which ESG topics (KPIs - we call KSIs) will be most important to drive long-term value - across industry in general. You can run through the 100 questions in about 20 MINUTES.

INSTRUCTIONS

SCORE each question (Key Sustainability Indicator) on IMPORTANCE TO COMPANIES IN YOUR SECTOR AND COMPANIES IN GENERAL - TO DRIVE LONG-TERM VALUE from ESG. You are NOT evaluating importance to your company leadership today. The TARGET = ~20% (20 of the 100) scored as MOST IMPORTANT. For each Key Sustainability Indicator, we describe the intent of the question/KSI.
