Telenor is a world-leading telecommunications operator who use digital to empower societies. And with 34,000 employees across 13 markets, connectivity is key to their company culture.
Telenor has teams around the world and their agile expansion into emerging markets has been central to their success. They were looking for a modern communication platform to support this continuing growth and give their teams smarter and relevant tools.
They chose Workplace.
And we’re delighted to have been working with them to meet these challenges.
Three-quarters of Telenor’s 34,000-strong team are now using Workplace, with over half of them doing so on their phones.
It’s led to better connectivity and innovation across their workforce. And, as Senior Vice President of Culture & Change Management, Anne Flagstad says, “It’s part of who we are now.”

Easier than email.
Workplace’s audio and video chat functions help Telenor VP, Berit Framnes, manage her Oslo-based team from Singapore without having to rely on email. It’s made communication with her team more meaningful, and more productive.
