When Mr. Jung Jun-Yang became POSCO Chief Executive in 2009, he envisioned trust to be the foundation of POSCO’s success in achieving sustainable co-prosperity with its stakeholders. Believing that “trust is POSCO’s identity” and “trust is based on communication,” he launched the ‘trust communication’ initiative in 2010.
