Advancing Our
DEI Commitment
Our commitment to DEI is reinforced through our Diversity Statement, our CEO’s Action for Diversity and Inclusion Pledge, our Global Human Rights Statement and the ongoing efforts of our global DEI Councils to identify and prioritize DEI strategies and ensure accountability.
Guided by Firm Beliefs
Respect and inclusion are the foundation of the American Tower culture. Diversity provides a strategic advantage—it infuses fresh ideas into the business and helps us remain connected to our customers in a dynamic global market. Further, it enables us to leverage local talent across our global footprint. This helps us to relate to, understand and therefore better serve the communities where we do business. With a diverse employee and customer base, a steadfast commitment to DEI is a critical factor in our success.
Our DEI Strategy is Guided by Three Pillars:
People, Culture and Partnerships
