KPN’s core values: personal, simplicity and trust

Personal, simplicity and trust are KPN's three core values. We expect all employees to understand these values and act accordingly.

Personal
To underscore our company’s personal nature, it is essential for every employee to be reachable, accessible, honest, open and clear in dealings with our business relations. We devote a lot of time and effort to cultivating energy, empathy and social commitment.

Simplicity
KPN offers customers a clear and simple range of offerings characterized by optimum service. To do this we have a uniformly arranged organization that is fast and flexible, and a workforce with a passion for customers. Internally, we make a distinction between the Consumer Market, Business Market, Corporate Market, Wholesale and Mobile International, but externally we form a single KPN. Everybody works together to achieve shared goals.

Trust
Our ambition is to grow. To fulfill that ambition we must be the best in a competitive market. Among other things we must do ordinary things extraordinarily well and make sure our services work. The result is satisfied customers who trust our company.
