Our Commitment To Diversity & Inclusion

We are committed to creating a culture of equality

At TM Forum, everybody is welcome. We believe diversity and inclusion are essential to a healthy, happy, creative and effective business. We continuously strive to create an inclusive and diverse team and provide a collaborative environment where everyone can bring their full self to the workplace and feel included and passionate about their work. Our focus on equality and flexible global structure enables us to build a culture where all employees are inspired to share their talents and ideas. This allows us to better serve the needs of our diverse membership by delivering the fresh thinking, innovation and energy needed to drive transformation in our industry.

TM Forum is an Equal Opportunity Employer that does not discriminate on the basis of actual or perceived race, creed, color, religion, alienage or national origin, ancestry, citizenship status, age, disability or handicap, sex, marital status, veteran status, sexual orientation, genetic information, arrest record, or any other characteristic protected by applicable federal, state or local laws.

Our commitment starts at the top with our Chief Executive Officer, Board and management team who are dedicated to sustaining a culture of equality with respect to recruitment, hiring, placement, advancement, transfer, training, compensation, benefits, and employee activities. We believe Diversity and Inclusion is a continuous journey we all need to work at, and in addition to the commitment of our leaders, we have an internal Diversity & Inclusion committee to help us move forward.

Beyond this, as an industry body, we also recognize our responsibility to provide leadership, motivation and energy for our industry to transform. Our Diversity & Inclusion Council leads our industry programs to do just that.

WE ARE TRANSFORMING TOGETHER

At TM Forum we want You to be You.

As a global industry association that drives collaboration and collective problem solving for the communications industry and beyond, we understand the value of diversity of thought, and the importance of each individual feeling included.

Within our team and member activities, are fully committed to building our culture of equal opportunity where difference is valued. We know that we can better support our members by respecting all our people’s unique backgrounds and cultures. It fuels our innovation and connects us all. Moreover, we believe embracing diversity will be crucial to the success of our industry in the coming years.

I am proud to lead an organization that has the highest standards of integrity and excellence which strives every day to bring out the best in our people, including our global membership. Diversity is our business and inclusion is our choice, and both together are a journey we need to constantly pay attention to.

We’re working to better support our members by respecting all of our people’s unique backgrounds and cultures, empowering all of us to belong and grow. I hope you’ll join us on this important journey, and be part of an open conversation on how we can continuously improve.
