A Christmas wish

Posted on December 19, 2008 by Charlotte Rodaway

This message comes from our colleague, Rafael Mendoza in Mexico. Sustainability, Quality, Leadership, boldness and… orange: the essential ArcelorMittal ingredients for an encouraging Christmas wish!

Dear Friends,

Winter by nature itself is considered since the beginning of humanity as a time of cold, crisis, survival and uncertainty.

When it was discovered that the cold came with the arrival of snow and through the warmth of the sun and spring, the snow transformed into water, creating rivers of life and movement, making everything reborn… then Christmas was invented to celebrate the miracle of life.

This year I wish:

That your effort exceeds the crisis, strengthening our Leadership,
That your friendship and love resist the cold, improving our Quality of life,
That your hope and happiness illuminate any uncertainty, achieving Sustainability.

Today, more than ever, let love, hope and union reign in your hearts; love transforms everything and we transform tomorrow.

Thanks to our boldness, we know that 2009 will be a more secure year for our ArcelorMittal family.

So scream out to everyone: “Merry Orange Christmas!”
