Since 1978, the Harold S. Geneen awards have served as our highest form of recognition, acknowledging the contributions of both individuals and teams from around the world who have made enduring contributions in our unending pursuit of excellence. This year's winners, and those who have won this award in past years, strengthen the fabric of ITT Industries. I'm proud of their accomplishments. Their contributions help make our company a great place to work, and they keep moving us along the path to becoming a premier multi-industry company. They serve as an inspiration to us all. Louis J. Giuliano Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer
