Skilled and committed entrepreneurial employees are a vital factor in Deutsche Telekom’s success.<\/p>\n
As one of Europe\u2019s largest telecommunication providers, Deutsche Telekom employs 198,079 individuals (as of December 31, 2025). More than half the workforce works outside of Germany.<\/p>\n
Cultural diversity \u2013 Common guiding principles<\/p>\n
Respecting the various cultures and using their distinctive national practices for success is just as important to Deutsche Telekom as developing a shared identity. This is based on the Group’s six Guiding Principles<\/p>\n
Delight our customersWe won\u2019t stopAct with respect and integrityOne team, togetherI am T \u2013 count on meStay curious and grow<\/p>\n
The Guiding Principles provide the basis for cooperation with our customers, shareholders and the public. All managers and employees at Deutsche Telekom are committed to bring the values to life. Based on this, our Code of Conduct defines rules to be observed by all employees in their corporate and personal conduct. It makes our Guiding Principles even more tangible. It defines the rules for our daily work internally and externally, thus bridging the gap between the Guiding Principles and many different rules and regulations within the group.<\/p>\n
Innovative HR structure<\/p>\n
In many countries, Deutsche Telekom already ranks as one of the top companies in the labor market. We continue to sharpen our profile as a talent enterprise and are proactive in our efforts to increase our attractiveness as an employer. In addition to this, Deutsche Telekom seeks intensive contact with schools and universities, and also participates in the MINT initiative, which is committed to better education in mathematics, IT<\/a>, the sciences and technology all over Germany.<\/p>\n We lay the foundation for a forward-looking human resources structure with experienced employees, junior staff who have received optimal in-house training at our company, as well as top graduates and experts that we win externally for our cause. Deutsche Telekom wants to have the right answers in response to the demographic and technological change taking place at our company and in society as a whole.<\/p>\n Talent Agenda<\/p>\n For years, Deutsche Telekom has been one of the largest vocational training provider in Germany. We succeeded in recruiting around 1,700 new trainees, a high percentage of whom have technical\/IT backgrounds. Training positions are available in a total of eight different professions and on eight cooperative study programs.<\/p>\n With numerous employers\u2019 benefits Deutsche Telekom also offers an extensive further training and qualification program to provide support for the professional and personal development of staff on the job \u2013 for pupils, students and graduates and professionals. A core focus is to specifically develop digital key qualifications \u2013 especially in the fields of artificial intelligence, data, cloud<\/a>, IT security, and analytics. These skills are essential when it comes to developing innovative solutions, increasing customer benefit, and ensuring competitiveness in the long term.<\/p>\n Deutsche Telekom is committed to promoting fair opportunities. The company has set itself the ambition of achieving a 30 percent share of women at senior and middle management levels in all company segments by the end of 2025. This, for example, takes into account among other things the requirements of the law for the equal participation of women and men in leadership positions (F\u00fcPoG). The principle of best selection is prioritized.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Skilled and committed entrepreneurial employees are a vital factor in Deutsche Telekom’s success.
