ArcelorMittal today announces that Stephanie
Werner-Dietz will join the company on 1st September 2022 as
Executive Vice President and global head of human resources.
Bart Wille, who currently holds this position,
has decided to retire at the end of this year following a career of
37 years in human resources management. Stephanie
joins ArcelorMittal from Nokia, where she is Chief People Officer
and a member of the Group Leadership Team. In this position she has
responsibility for all people-related topics including human
resource management, real estate and health and safety. She
recently launched Nokia’s new people strategy, which has a strong
emphasis on growth, skills and development.
She joined Nokia in 1998 after graduating from
university, and in nearly 25 years with the company has held
various HR leadership positions in Germany, Finland, China,
Switzerland, the Philippines, the US and Romania. A German native,
she holds a diploma in applied business languages (Chinese) and
international business studies from the University of Applied
Sciences of Bremen, in Germany.
Stephanie will report to Aditya Mittal, Chief
Executive Officer of ArcelorMittal, and will also work closely on
human resources issues with Mr Lakshmi N. Mittal in his role of
Executive Chairman. She will be based in the company’s head office
in Luxembourg.
Commenting, Lakshmi N. Mittal, Executive
Chairman, said:
“First of all, I must thank Bart who has made a
significant contribution to ArcelorMittal’s people agenda since
joining the company five years ago. He has introduced several
important initiatives to strengthen our talent base and build a
high performing organisation where everyone can thrive and perform.
Under his guidance we have focused on attracting, developing and
engaging a new generation of leaders, and on making our company
more diverse and inclusive. He will be staying with us until the
end of this year, but I will take this opportunity to wish him all
the best in this next phase of his life. With Stephanie we will
have another highly experienced human resources executive, who will
ensure that ArcelorMittal further refines and develops its people
strategy, so that we can continue to attract and develop the
brightest talent in all our operations around the world.”
Aditya Mittal, Chief Executive,
said:
“I would also like to take this opportunity to
thank Bart for his strong leadership of the HR function in the past
five years. He is a much-valued colleague and member of the
ArcelorMittal family. We will miss his wise counsel but wish him a
very happy and fulfilling retirement. I’m very much looking forward
to welcoming Stephanie to ArcelorMittal and working closely with
her on our people agenda. At the end of the day it is our people
who bring to life our purpose of making smarter steels for people
and planet, so we must ensure ArcelorMittal is attractive to as
diverse a pool of talent as possible in support of our ambition to
remain the world’s leading steel company in the coming decade and
beyond.”
Stephanie Werner-Dietz
said:
“One of the first things that attracted me to
ArcelorMittal is the fact that people, alongside the planet, sit at
the heart of its purpose. I am passionate about people, who are the
driving force behind every company’s success. Having spent 25 years
in the technology sector with Nokia, I am happy to embark on a new
learning journey and a new challenge with ArcelorMittal - a truly
global business with more than 150,000 employees. I am already
fascinated by the steel industry which is far more technologically
sophisticated than I had imagined. I also like the fact the company
has a strong learning culture, with the ArcelorMittal University
sitting at the heart of this. There are several major trends which
we need to integrate into our people strategy in the coming decade
- decarbonisation is the obvious one, but also digitalisation,
artificial intelligence, the evolution of the workplace, and the
further steps to embrace diversity and inclusion into the culture
of the organisation. I can’t wait to get started and am delighted
that I will also have the opportunity to work with Bart for the
first few months before he retires.”
