The Maturity Institute

What The Maturity Institute does

The Maturity Institute is a UK-based not-for-profit professional institute, headquartered in London, that develops and disseminates proprietary frameworks for measuring and improving organizational maturity. Its flagship asset is OMINDEX®, a trademarked diagnostic standard built around the Ten Pillars of Organizational Maturity model and operationalized through the OM30 instrument, which tests 18 factors across seven organizational health indicators. The institute publishes the "The Mature Corporation" textbook and advocates the Total Stakeholder Value (TSV) Framework as an alternative to shareholder primacy, positioning itself in the human-governance and stakeholder-capitalism discourse.

Its core product surface spans OMINDEX Workforce (a free 10-minute survey), the full OM30 diagnostic, the Law Firm Maturity Index (a sector-specialized benchmark), and a training catalogue including the Purpose-Led Value Workshop and the Organisational Maturity Workshop. Revenue is generated through four streams: membership subscriptions (Associate and Full Member tiers), paid training and workshops, fee-based diagnostic services, and publications. The institute operates with a small team of approximately 8 employees and runs a sales-led plus community-led go-to-market, anchored by the OMINDEX Users Group and a certified analyst pathway, with distribution partnerships including Pensions For Purpose (December 2022), Lex Solutions (November 2024), and the Unbossers Network. It maintains operating geographies in the United Kingdom and the United States.

Broad incumbents

• MSCI ESG Research: MSCI ESG provides institutional-grade ESG ratings and analytics covering thousands of companies, competing for the same "stakeholder measurement" budget as MI but with vastly greater data infrastructure and investor distribution.
• Bersin by Deloitte: Bersin is a research and advisory subscription service covering HR, leadership, and organizational effectiveness—addressing the same buyer as MI (CHROs, heads of people) but with a much larger research staff and broader content library.
• S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA): S&P Global's CSA scores companies on governance, social, and environmental dimensions through structured questionnaires. It is a broad incumbent that addresses a similar "measure the intangibles" need at much greater scale than MI's OMINDEX.
• International Integrated Reporting Council (IFRS Foundation): The IIRC created the Integrated Reporting Framework that MI references in its research; it is the dominant global standard-setter for integrated/organizational reporting that MI's TSV framework is positioned to complement.

Direct peers

• Great Place to Work Institute: Great Place to Work runs workforce culture and trust assessments that produce recognized certification and ranking lists, mirroring MI's OMINDEX Workforce diagnostic and its sector-specific Law Firm Maturity Index.
• OCEG (Open Compliance and Ethics Group): OCEG is a non-profit global community that defines GRC (governance, risk, and compliance) standards and certifications. Its GRC Capability Model overlaps directly with MI's governance and culture maturity focus and its membership-based model mirrors MI's OMINDEX Users Group.
• Chartered Management Institute (CMI): CMI is a UK-based professional body that sets management standards, offers certifications, and publishes thought leadership—closely paralleling MI's UK roots, professional-institute structure, and certification of analysts/practitioners.
• European Foundation for Quality Management (EFQM): EFQM is the most direct peer: a non-profit standards body that runs organizational excellence/maturity assessments (the EFQM Model) used by thousands of European organizations. It mirrors MI's not-for-profit, framework-based, evidence-driven approach to diagnosing organizational health.
• B Lab (B Corporation): B Lab is a non-profit that certifies organizations against holistic standards covering social, environmental, and governance performance, closely aligned with MI's Total Stakeholder Value and Ten Pillars framework. It is a direct peer in the "purpose-led organizational standards" category.

Emerging players

• Tomorrow's Company: A UK-based think tank focused on purpose-led business and stakeholder governance, thematically overlapping MI's Total Stakeholder Value mission but operating more as a thought-leadership body than a diagnostic provider.
