levelUP!NextGen: New platform and more participants

headcount

With this talent program, Deutsche Telekom continues to support various career paths within the Group, develop employees’ leadership and soft skills, and promote participant networking across segments worldwide. A new element of the program in 2024 is a focus on the target group of employees whose talent was confirmed in the WeGrow process. These may be future managers or technology/digital experts who currently have no specific leadership ambitions. Percipio, a tool already in use in the company, is now used as the central platform for the learning content of the levelUP!NextGen program.

At the start of September 2024, approximately 1,100 talents began their primarily virtual learning journey, consisting of innovative, inspiring, and tangible leadership and collaboration topics and skills. The participants personally selected their optional modules to meet their personal development needs. Compared to the previous year, the number of international participants rose significantly, from 30 to 39 percent. The talents came from all segments and 22 different countries. The top 3 countries represented were Germany, Hungary, and Greece.
