Inclusion at Teneo

We believe that different perspectives and new ideas are essential for us to meaningfully partner with our clients globally. We are committed to investing in our people and fostering an environment of dignity and respect to create a sense of purpose and belonging for all.

We recognize that to deliver our best work, we must foster a workplace culture that:

  • Cultivates healthy, connected relationships built on trust
  • Empowers everyone to share their best ideas
  • Inspires us to recognize our individual and collective successes
  • Ensures all voices are heard and concerns are addressed
  • Provides the right kinds of supports when and how they are needed

Sustaining an inclusive culture in an increasingly complex world is a challenge that we embrace at Teneo because we believe deeply in its fundamental value to our business. Inclusivity and Initiative is one of our core values, and our expectation is that all Teneo employees commit to being inclusive leaders and challenge themselves every day to make their own unique contributions to strengthening our culture.

Below are a few of the ways we are equipping and empowering our people across the globe to think, act and lead inclusively at Teneo. Please see our Sustainability Reports to learn more.

Programs and Initiatives

Inclusive Culture Council (ICC)

Our Inclusive Culture Council (ICC) brings together leaders from across Teneo’s business units, geographies and Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) to advise the Global Executive Committee (GEC) on workplace culture-related policies and practices. The ICC is designed to have its finger on the pulse of our culture, and its members are empowered to be action-oriented advocates for inclusive culture change.

Early Careers Partnerships

Teneo offers several internship programs to provide meaningful work experience to early careers talent from all backgrounds. Interns are guided by an experienced team that provides hands-on learning opportunities as well as structured training. Each intern is supported by a mentor who takes an active role in developing their skillset.

We offer comprehensive family-friendly policies and support for all parents at Teneo, with each region providing competitive policies for key life events.

Career Development Programs

We are dedicated to attracting, developing and retaining top talent from all backgrounds and experiences by providing meaningful career development opportunities. Through mentorship programs, leadership training and tailored professional growth initiatives, we equip our employees with the skills, knowledge and experiences needed to thrive at every stage of their careers.

Employee Resource Groups (ERGs)

Teneo’s employee-led ERGs play a vital role in championing our culture worldwide. Their efforts keep our commitment to fostering an inclusive workplace at the forefront by raising awareness, driving meaningful conversations, supporting professional development and enhancing recruitment initiatives. Teneo ERGs are open to all employees.
