Hans Vestberg, Chairman and CEO, Verizon
At Verizon, we’re invested in building a future of work that’s equitable and sustainable for all.
As we recover from the COVID 19 pandemic, how we work has leapfrogged by about 5 to 7 years, thanks largely to the accelerated digitization of our world. Nearly every industry on the planet runs on mobility, broadband and cloud services, and that means we need to think differently about what it really means to work and to thrive.
As a major employer with more than 130,000 employees worldwide, we feel a responsibility to actively shape a positive future for our workforce so we can continue to attract and retain top talent, help our customers live and work harmoniously, supply our partners with the tools and tech they need to succeed and ensure that our connected society leaves no one behind.
This is why we’re excited to team up with Xynteo and Europe Delivers to launch the Future of Work initiative. Our focus now is to prepare for the challenges – and opportunities – that lie ahead.
We hope you’ll join us.
Hans V.
