The smartest telco in the world, creating unlimited possibilities
– It makes me extremely proud to work alongside this very talented group of people. Together we have agreed on a new vision which reflects our ambition to increase speed, simplicity and accountability. From now on our vision is to be the smartest telco in the world, creating a society of unlimited possibilities, says Anders Nilsson, CEO and President of Tele2.
Adjusted reporting structure
To reflect the new organizational set up, Tele2 will as of the Q4 2019 interim report adjust the reporting structure by combining the Sweden Consumer, the Sweden Business and the IoT Segments into one segment. The change will be made retrospectively by changing historic numbers for comparability and follows the new internal financial reporting structure.
These changes constitute important steps toward turning Tele2 into a truly integrated operator. By making the Tele2 organization flatter and more integrated across functions these changes bring management closer to the customer and employees closer to each other, allowing Tele2 to better understand and serve customers’ needs.
