Doing business means taking responsibility.
We take environmental impacts into account in our business decisions and are constantly refining our measures.
“For us, it is crucial not only to state sustainability as a goal, but also to consistently build on our own contribution.”
Hans-Martin Schneider Senior Partner & Founder 4C GROUP
Where ESG becomes tangible for us.
This understanding shapes our own actions. We focus on areas where we can have a direct impact: the environment, people, and clear standards.
Reducing Environmental Impact
We focus on areas where we can have a direct impact: mobility, events, IT, and procurement.
Empowering People and Society
We promote development and diversity within the company and are committed to early childhood education through the
4C FOOTSTEPS Foundation.
Integrity and Clear Standards
Our Code of Conduct provides the framework for lawful, transparent, and ethical conduct.
Reducing our environmental footprint step by step.
As a management consulting firm, our primary environmental impacts stem mainly from transportation, events, IT, procurement, and day-to-day office operations. That’s why we focus our efforts precisely on the areas where we can have a direct impact.
-
Mobility
We avoid unnecessary travel and promote lower-emission mobility, for example, through train travel, remote work, JobRad, and our Green Car Policy.
-
Events
When planning our events, we consider travel arrangements, venue selection, catering, and materials to use resources more consciously.
-
IT & Procurement
We scale our IT infrastructure to meet our needs and ensure the conscious use of resources in both procurement and operation.
-
Office & Resources
In our day-to-day office operations, we reduce the use of consumables and ensure the mindful use of energy, water, and other resources.
-
Continuous Improvement
We regularly review our measures and use internal initiatives such as ESG in Motion to promote knowledge, exchange, and concrete implementation in our daily work.

Binding standards, external initiatives, and social engagement provide a concrete framework for our aspirations.
