Decarbonization is becoming increasingly vital for the private real estate sector, yet Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) professionals are expressing feelings of overwhelm and burnout. As the industry faces mounting pressure to meet sustainability goals, many ESG practitioners report being stressed and overworked, hindering their ability to drive meaningful change.
The demand for effective ESG strategies has surged, prompting organizations to prioritize environmental initiatives. However, this urgency has led to heightened workloads for ESG professionals, who often find themselves juggling multiple responsibilities without adequate resources or support. The emotional toll of navigating complex regulations and stakeholder expectations has left many feeling lost in their roles.
Industry experts emphasize the need for organizations to provide better support systems, including training and resources, to empower ESG professionals. By fostering a healthier work environment, the real estate sector can enhance its capacity to achieve sustainability targets and contribute to a more sustainable future.
