What we believe in

Our values of Takeda-ism are Integrity, Fairness, Honesty and Perseverance, with Integrity as the core. These are brought to life through actions based on Patient, Trust, Reputation and Business, in that order.

Our belief in putting people first extends beyond our patients — it includes their families and communities, as well as our Takeda colleagues and their families.

We are committed to embracing our differences, valuing different perspectives, and fostering a culture of respect, inclusiveness and empowerment.

Our embedded Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) strategy enables us to attract and retain exceptional talent, drives innovation, and helps address systemic inequalities in our communities.

Living Our Values

As Takeda employees, our decisions and actions can affect people’s lives. This is a noble purpose that demands the highest standards of ethical behavior. Every day, we draw on Takeda’s values and priorities of Patient-Trust-Reputation-Business to ensure we do what’s right – for our patients, each other and society – and remain true to Takeda’s mission.

  • PATIENT “Is it right for patients?” This question is our North Star, ensuring our actions are guided only by changing lives for the better. It ensures we always put patients first, show our respect to them, their loved ones, and their healthcare providers, and builds positive relationships with all.

  • TRUST We build trust with society through ethical actions and decisions. Trust begins with each other at Takeda, where we foster a diverse, inclusive, safe, open and collaborative working environment. Here, we can build rewarding careers in a company we can all be proud of.

  • REPUTATION We try to consider the impact everything we do has on Takeda’s hard-earned reputation. Maintaining trusting partnerships and serving patients closely require us to always be objective, transparent, honest, fair and aware. We hold ourselves to the highest standards of integrity.

  • BUSINESS To develop our business and achieve sustainable results, we focus on our commitments to patients, our customers and society. We also need to treat company property and information with due care, conduct business with integrity, and tell Takeda’s stories honestly, clearly and responsibly. When we do this, we believe strong business results will follow.
