Courtesy of the Courier, which I received today.

I'm sure you are all going to read it but I just thought it worth mentioning that throughout the 500+ worded diatribe focusing on "Strategy for Royal Mail", "Brilliant at the basics", "A Commercial future" and finally "Driving Profitable Growth" - she mentioned the partnership with the CWU not once as though it was a total irrelevancy and regardless of what needs to be done at whatever cost to the workforce it would be done.

I hope you enjoy seeing our Christmas stamps going back to 1966 on the front page of December’s Courier.
Looking at these stamps reminded me that, for all of us at Royal Mail, Christmas matters. This is our busiest and most important time of the year. The job we do is so important to the nation.

So, by the time you read this we will be pulling out all the stops to deliver a great Christmas for our customers. All around the country, colleagues, joined by thousands of extra helpers, will be hard at work to ensure we meet our promises.

I hope the weather conditions are better than last winter!

I appreciate everything you do to keep the mail moving at Christmas and throughout the year. You do a fantastic job and our achievements every day as a company are amazing.

Strategy for Royal Mail
I know when I visit offices many of you tell me you want to know what the future holds for us. I want to take you through our strategy.

I want Royal Mail to be the best delivery and media business in the UK.

Brilliant at the basics
This means carrying on doing what we’ve already started. We must complete our modernisation programme. Next year, there will be big changes for everyone in Royal Mail, especially deliveries.

We can only make modernisation work if we all get behind the changes. I know this is far from an easy task. We will make sure that you are given clear information about what the changes mean for you.

We also have to make sure that we offer our customers the right products at the right price. Most importantly, we all must work hard to deliver what we promise. This can be very hard to do but we can and will do it.

A commercial future
It’s vital we have the freedom to compete. The progress that we have made is clear in the recent Ofcom consultation announcement. But, regulatory change is not a done deal. We continue to work closely with Ofcom to try and get the deal we deserve.

We can only operate commercially if we sort out the burden of our balance sheet. We are waiting for the European Commission to decide if the Government can restructure our debt and take over the historic pension deficit.

Driving profitable growth
The business that is our bread and butter – white envelopes – is in decline. We must look for ways to grow and continue to be relevant to our customers. So, we are investing in parcels.

This is the growth area of the market. We are also going to start a new media business to provide expertise and planning to support companies using mail as part of an advertising campaign. Our core letters business will remain a huge focus for us.

In the New Year there will be much more communication about our strategy. January’s Courier will be dedicated to explaining where we are going as a business.

Next year is going to be a critical one for Royal Mail. We are at a turning point. The decisions that are made now and the actions that we take will have a real impact on the future of Royal Mail.

Thank you for all your hard work this year and I wish you and your families a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year.

For a clear strategy...it's not very clear what the strategy is but you're right DV it does give the impression that it's very much a one woman show.

We will make sure that you are given clear information about what the changes mean for you doesn't give the impression that we will have any say in those changes.
Neither does...I want to take you through our strategy.

And that...Next year, there will be big changes for everyone in Royal Mail, especially deliveries. gives me the chills.

Barring the brush up the arse ft, I can't imagine it getting any worse for delivery officers of which I give sincere thanks I am not one now. I have had a bad knee for about 8 years, and could no longer bear weight on my right leg, although I can walk the knee will go at a moments notice. With the advent of longer deliverys and later and later retirement I just wonder what steps the CWU are taking to defend older posties in this go it alone drive by Moya and her gang to forever increase productivity. I didn't hear her mention WCM or Improved Flow Through so what else is in store.

[krussel]

to defend older posties

None

In the future i see the job finishing with medical retirement other than normal retirement ie; the type when you can still walk etc.

[clashcityrocker]

Dedicated preppers - old and tired posties.
Dedicated porters - mudas
Dedicated walkers - young and fit posties.

In future everyone should be known as a prepa, a muda or fitta

[TeeferTiger]

She has a lovely view from her ivory tower, doesn't she?

[Lincox]

She conveniently fails to mention the fact that some casuals have failed to be paid for their labours. This is the sad endictment of a figure head that does not have her hands on the wheel, and can only spout out praise for staff that are being pushed, pulled, bullied harrassed to achieve a service that is barely a patch on the service that once was.

[seeker019]

Such a lovely speech Moya
Pity the work force are not behind you in any way shape or form!!

So in 2012 we can expect more management bulling

IDIOT

.......pulling out all the stops to deliver a great Christmas for our customers.

.......pulling out all the stops to deliver an absolutely first-class Christmas for our customers."

I've heard variations on this phrase from somebody in RM every time I've opened a newspaper or watched TV.

It must have been one of the main bullet points in a "What to say to the Press" management Power Point show.
