In close collaboration with their human resources department, managers participate in the skills development plan and the management of their teams’ career paths. Given the Group’s highly international activity, 88% of Exclusive Networks’ workforce is located outside France as of 31 December 2023. Exclusive Networks considers the multicultural dimension to be a major asset in its international development. International, professional and geographical mobility contributes to the wide dissemination of the Group’s values within its organisation.
