“At the end of the day, the cost savings will be quite significant” says HP board member, Executive Vice President, and CFO Rob Highwayman, who, with the aid of HP’s outsourcing arm, HP Services, has studied outsourcing extensively. “We simply can no longer afford this inefficiency and remain competitive in the world stage,” Highwayman said.The Hewlett-Packard board continues to explore other outsourcing possibilities including HP’s more than 1,200 vice presidents.
Sanji Gurvinder Singh, 23, of Indus Teleservices, Mumbai, India, will be assuming the Office of President, Chairman and CEO as of October 31. He will receive a salary of $320 USD a month with proportionate benefits. Mr Singh will maintain his office in India and will be working primarily at night, due to the time difference between the US and India.
“I am excited to serve in this position,” Mr. Singh stated in an exclusive interview. “I always knew that my career at the HP call center would lead to great things.” An HP spokesperson noted that Mr. Singh has extensive experience in public speaking and has been given Ms. Fiorina’s script tree to enable him to answer any question without having to understand the issue.
Ms. Fiorina, 49, has announced that she will join the faculty of the Stanford School of Business, specializing in medieval business and the related subject of employee motivation. No one at the Stanford School of Business was available for comment.
In an unrelated news item it was learned that HP was selling five corporate jets complete with passengers thought to be board members and HP executives. While the value of the content was not thought to be significant it is believed that their accumulated air-miles could be used to facilitate additional outsourcing initiatives.
