Generation

TEL is providing a field where employees of all generations can work together to demonstrate their individual skills.

In addition to improving the reemployment system for retirees, we will continue with the practice of hiring promising talents regardless of gender, nationality, etc., focusing instead on the candidates’ specialty, experience, and future potential.

Roundtable Discussion

A Retiree and Young Employees Exchange Views on
“TEL’s Mindset”

Held as a part of our employee exchange initiatives, the roundtable discussion included five young employees from a variety of departments and a retiree who had worked in the development field until the mandatory retirement age. They discussed many topics—including the most memorable projects they took part in, what they like about the TEL Group, and the mindset they should adopt to ensure their professional growth at TEL—empathy emerged among the participants, transcending their age difference. “TEL invigorates those who like a challenge” and “Our workplace is truly welcoming” were among the comments that strongly resonated with everyone. Apparently, TEL’s culture of respecting each other and boldly reaching out to greater heights has been well preserved.
The discussion was followed by an advice session led by the retiree. Forward-looking questions such as “How should we introduce AI to our actual work?” and “What are the things that only TEL can do at present?” were asked, to which the retiree offered thought-provoking views, drawing on his years of experience at TEL from its infancy to maturity. “I think you should openly declare whatever you aim to accomplish, and challenge yourselves to make it all come true,” he urged, and the young participants took the advice to heart.
