Twenty years after founding Dell, Michael Dell will transfer the title of chief executive officer to Kevin Rollins, with whom he has led the world’s fastest growing, most profitable computer systems company since 1997.
Dell’s board of directors, meeting today in New York City, appointed Rollins CEO effective at the company’s July 16 annual meeting of shareholders. Mr. Rollins, currently president and chief operating officer, will become president and chief executive officer. He will also be nominated for election to the Dell board at the annual meeting.
