Aging Beautifully!
CEO interview from our March-April, 2016 Selamta magazine
Tewolde says, “Ethiopian Airlines has
come a long way in its 70 years, starting
from a humble beginning but quickly
becoming a leading African aviation
group. Of course, Ethiopian continues
to age beautifully. Throughout the past
seven decades, the airline has established
itself as adept in all facets of aviation
services: technology leadership, network
expansion and aviation mentoring. “The turn of this century saw the global
prominence of Africa and its renaissance.
Ethiopian as a Pan-African airline has
continued to catalyze this development
through its extensive and convenient air
connectivity options to 92 international
destinations in five continents across the
globe. As a result, African cities are now
much closer to each other and to the rest
of the world than any time in history.
Hence it is worthy to mark and celebrate
this milestone — a once-in-a-lifetime
achievement that deserves recognition.
“Moreover, in the corporate world,
age symbolizes strength, endurance
and security despite an unpredictable
marketplace. A successful anniversary program should be as much about heralding past accomplishments
as it is about looking forward. This is a time to connect with both our employees and our customers
— those who have helped Ethiopian to survive the competition and establish the strong foundation
upon which we will continue to serve them for many years to come.”
