a leader's oration?

Hello All Users,

What would we call a speech given by a leader of a company that is supposed to be posted of the company's website?

I have found an example here but I don't think we call it like that... don'thttp://www.hnxth.com/english/about/speech.jsp

Thanks

thanks Clive,

are there any other possibilities?
0
eg A message from the General Manager.

The word 'oration' sounds pretentious to a native ear

We do not normally write of 'a leader' in a business context like this.

Hi again

Bear with me guys, I don't mean to beat a dead horse here but... What if the message/letter from company leaders is supposed to be posted on a website and there are three people undersigned? Can I call it:

Leadership message

Where I live, more likely would be
eg To All Employees.

I see.

Can I entitle it as: To Our Partners or To Our Customers ?

Yes.

Don't call customers 'partners'.

oh... does it have any negative connotations?

It sounds insincere, in my opinion..
