Dell has recently released a report about its 2030 goals for societal change. In the report, Dell announced it is planning to hire, develop, and retain women so they account for 50% of the company’s global workforce and 40% of global people managers. Currently, women make up 30% of the overall workforce and 23% of its people leaders.
And Dell is going to hire, develop, and retain black/African American and Hispanic team members so they account for 25% of the company’s U.S. workforce and 15% of U.S. people managers.
Plus the company is going to educate 95% of all team members on an annual basis about unconscious bias, harassment, micro-aggressions, and privilege.
“Unlocking the power of data will advance humanity more than any other force over the next decade,” said Dell Technologies chairman and CEO Michael Dell. “We are committed to making that power broadly available to communities around the world so we can all move forward together.”
Dell is also focused on advancing sustainability. This will be done by recycling an equivalent product for every product a customer buys. And the company is going to lead the circular economy with over half of all product content being made from recycled or renewable material and use 100% recycled or renewable material in all packaging.
In terms of transforming lives, Dell plans to advance the health, education, and economic opportunity of 1 billion people. And they plan to digitally transform 1,000 nonprofit organizations and achieve 75% team member participation in charitable giving and volunteerism in communities.
Along with seeking customer input, Dell engaged third parties and considered the U.N.’s Sustainable Development Goals and Business Roundtable’s Statement on the Purpose of a Corporation. And Dell also surveyed team members to assess the most critical issues and opportunities they see.
“We have a great responsibility to apply the full power of Dell Technologies to transform lives and society,” added Karen Quintos, chief customer officer at Dell Technologies. “By combining our technology portfolio, global scale, team member talent and customer partnerships, we can drive significant positive impact. Our 2030 agenda is comprehensive and deeply embedded across the business. The moonshot goals stretch us to go far beyond incremental change. In some cases, we’re still working to uncover how we’ll get there – but we know that significant change and innovation starts with deep commitment.”
Dell plans to use data to overcome humanity’s biggest challenges over the next decade. And Dell developed the 2030 Progress Made Real Public Policy roadmap and will actively support public policies to drive our desired outcomes for advancing sustainability, cultivating inclusion, transforming lives, and upholding ethics and privacy.
