On the Front Lines of ESG: How PE Portfolio Companies Can Start Impacting Tomorrow Today

Two CEOs from private equity-backed businesses discuss their experiences implementing ESG initiatives during a panel sponsored by RSM.

This GrowthTV episode is part of ACG’s series for executives at private equity-backed companies, sponsored by RSM US LLP, a leading accounting, tax and advisory firm dedicated to the middle market.


Environmental, social and governance (ESG) matters are top of mind for a growing number of private equity LPs and GPs, but often it’s the portfolio company executives who are putting those ESG objectives into practice.

Originally broadcast via a LinkedIn Live event, this video features two C-level executives from private equity-backed businesses who discuss their own experiences implementing ESG initiatives alongside their PE partners.

Anthony DeCandido, partner, financial services senior analyst at RSM, moderated the panel, which featured speakers Matt Dietrich, CEO of Alco Manufacturing, a portfolio company of MiddleGround Capital; and Mitch Bowling, CEO of ALC Schools, a portfolio company of Palladium Equity Partners.
