Materiality Assessment Matrix Diagram Template for PowerPoint & Google Slides

Description

Present your ESG priorities with clarity using this professionally designed Materiality Assessment matrix slide. Built as a two-axis framework, the layout maps key topics according to Importance to Stakeholders (vertical axis) and Importance to Business (horizontal axis). The visual quadrant design helps organizations identify and communicate which sustainability issues require immediate focus and strategic investment.

Color-coded markers categorize themes such as Social Responsibility & Workforce, Environmental Stewardship, Governance & Compliance, and Economic & Innovation Drivers. Topics like Data Privacy & Cybersecurity, Innovation & Technology, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, and Climate Change & Carbon Reduction are clearly positioned to reflect their relative impact. The gradient background subtly emphasizes high and very high priority zones, guiding executive discussions and board-level decision-making. Fully editable text labels, data points, and color elements allow you to tailor the matrix to your own stakeholder surveys and materiality analyses. Optimized for both PowerPoint and Google Slides, this slide maintains structure and clarity across devices and presentation formats.

Who is it for

This slide is ideal for sustainability leaders, ESG consultants, corporate strategy teams, compliance officers, and investor relations professionals presenting materiality findings to executives, boards, or external stakeholders.
