TTEC, a leading global customer experience technology and services provider focused on the design, implementation and delivery of transformative solutions for many of the world's most iconic and disruptive brands, today announced that the company's Chief People Officer, Michael Wellman, has recently joined the Community Leadership Board of the American Diabetes Association Colorado.

The American Diabetes Association's Community Leadership Board is comprised of proven leaders from all sectors of Colorado's business and health care communities. The Board works to bring the mission of the American Diabetes Association to life with one vision as a guiding force—to work towards a life free of diabetes and all its burdens. Alongside staff, its members recruit high-level volunteers to spearhead Association programs and events, open doors through personal and professional spheres of influence, and develop strategic market plans to help strengthen the organization's footprint in the community.

"We are excited to welcome Michael to the ranks of our community leadership board and look forward to tapping into his wealth of experience in transforming cultures, specifically the unique culture of those living with diabetes," said David Samson, Area Executive Director, American Diabetes Association Colorado.

In his role as Chief People Officer for TTEC, Wellman leads a worldwide Human Capital organization with a focus on executing an innovative, forward-thinking people strategy to attract top talent and develop, reward and retain TTEC's more than 47,000 employees. He has over 20 years of experience in creating company cultures that are less about traditional human resources and more about engaging the hearts and minds of employees as a catalyst to build a strong people culture that drives the business forward. Wellman has held executive leadership roles in Human Resources in the healthcare, customer experience and hospitality industries leading large-scale people strategy development, lifecycle talent management, succession planning, organizational development and human capital transformations.

"Our company values inspire our team to Lead Everyday and Act as One – this translates not only into how we work collaboratively as an organization to bring humanity to customer experience but extends into the ways in which we give back to our community," said Wellman.
