Empower employees to immerse themselves in inclusivity

Bhaskar Ghorti, President, Nokia Software and Chief Digital Officer at Nokia talks to TM Forum’s VP of Communications, Liz Coyne about how Nokia is working towards equality across all aspects of the business.

“Training, creating environments where people can speak, and then taking small initiatives is what we are doing in terms of how we go about it. There's no one big, giant initiative and we don't believe - I don't believe - that we should go big [and] corporate. We have a hundred thousand employees; it cannot come top down. The top has to believe in it, it has to be cold, gut value, but it's going to only be pervasive if everybody in the organization has the flexibility to come up with ideas, come up with programmes and be aware of it.”

Watch the full video for more insights from Ghorti including his thoughts on how remote working is bringing us all closer.
