Inclusion and diversity
Inclusiveness sits at the heart of Nokia’s value creation and is core to the way we do business, innovate and partner with our customers. We love and embrace the uniqueness of our people and want to make sure everyone feels safe and at home.
Why Inclusion & Diversity matter for Nokia
We work hard for increased team inclusiveness, because we know that such teams show higher collective intelligence. Inclusive teams make better decisions, crack problems easier, and are creative and innovative.
One of the biggest advocates of inclusion and diversity is Nokia’s CEO and President Pekka Lundmark who advances every effort to create a psychologically safe workplace for all. See his video below.
In our yearly inclusion survey, we continuously measure our people’s ability to empathize with and appreciate different point of views, grow their emotional and social intelligence, listen, share and reflect. We also expect our people to respect and appreciate diverse identities and use it as a strength.
The survey findings influence Nokia’s next steps in the areas of leadership, team and individual development, trainings, and company culture among others.
All employment decisions at Nokia are made without regard to gender, race, religion, color, nationality, ethnic origin, citizenship, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, characteristics or expression, marital status, membership or non-membership in a trade union, or any other protected class. No one should be treated less favorably on the grounds of such characteristics.
Inclusion and diversity – what we do
