Dell just recently announced that Gilbert F. Casellas will assume duties as Vice President of Corporate Responsibility. His office will be under Don Carty, vice chairman and chief financial officer of Dell.
Mr. Carty said:
Gil’s appointment reflects Dell’s growing commitment to global leadership around the environment, corporate involvement and to driving the democratization of technology worldwide. He and his team will oversee the heightened integration of economic, social and environmental responsibility into everything we do and ensure that the recruitment and development of diversity among our employees, customers and partners remains a cornerstone of how we do business.
I think the key word there is the making sure we have “environmental responsibilty into everything that we do.”
