Xerox's supply chain organization hired me to write an internal newsletter for employees. The purpose was to encourage employees across the globe to connect with one another and work as a team. For two years we collected personal stories from folks throughout the organization. It was an effective way to support employees and inspire teamwork. In the attached sample, Heiko Rommelmann, a principal scientist with Xerox, talks about his family in rural Germany and the origins of a recipe passed down from his great-grandmother. The primary ingredient is pigs head. If you click on this link, you can read the article and a few others that appeared in the newsletter over the years. (Note: the PDF is NOT a copy of the newsletter. It is just a few of the stories reproduced here as a writing sample) Download Xerox employee collectionx.
