Dell Honors Top Employees
Mr. Richard Teo (left end) with Dell employees
While many opt to go after greener pastures
for a quick buck, a lot still believe in loyalty. And in the IT landscape, the
virtue of loyalty is alive and well. It is therefore not surprising that many
people employed in this sector of society spend long careers with their
respective companies. In Dell, for example, most of its employees
continue to serve beyond five years; a time frame where many would pick up
their resumes to seek higher positions and/or pay. Thus, in recognition for
years served and the accompanying loyalty it took, Dell recently honored its
top performers during a year-end event at the Townhall.
Dell builds its business based on the
purpose it was founded – Delivering technology solutions that enable
people everywhere to grow and thrive. Every employee is very clear on the
reason why they come to work and do their best work in service of the customer.
Every employee is clear about the business strategy and how their roles are
connected to this strategy. Every employee knows Dell is second to none in
integrity and ethics and that their performance and career advancement is based
on meritocracy.
Dell’s people strategy is clear on how each
one will succeed – developing inspiring leaders, championing team members to
take risk, feel supported and valued, and have a listening and
sharing environment for employees to shape the directions of the
company and to be the Employer of Choice; a compelling destination for
employees to thrive, achieve their career aspirations and have fun. Dell is
committed to living its career development approach by supporting career goals
and aspirations, setting clear expectations on the skills and capabilities
needed now and in the future, creating opportunities to grow in current roles, with
others and through formal learning, providing a clear view of opportunities
across the organization, developing inspiring leaders who are invested in total
development. All of the foregoing, together with
merit-based recognition, bestowed upon those whose outputs excel in their
respective departments, regardless of race and creed.
“We believe that in order to be a
successful company and a great place to work, our business must be driven by
individuals with similarities and differences. Diversity is an inescapable
fact. With a large global employee base, we’re a collage of races, ethnicity,
religions, age, levels of disability, backgrounds, lifestyles and cultures.
Inclusion is about embracing, respecting, honoring, recognizing and,
ultimately, leveraging the differences we innately possess to build a better
community, workplace and world. At Dell, we’re committed to building a
diverse environment that is reflective of a diverse global marketplace and an
inclusive culture in which everyone is engaged. One of our leadership
competencies is to ensure that each team member is heard and valued, and that
personal strengths and perspectives are assets to the company, rather than
being left at the door,” said Richard Teo, Country Leader for Dell Philippines,
after bestowing recognition to its outstanding corps of employees and managers.

Dell presented service awards to 180
employees with 5 years tenure from Consumer Small Medium Business (CSMB) and
Services BPO. Dell prides itself in being an Employer of Choice and
celebrated the recognition of these team members’ loyalty and tenure with the
company. Dell also showed its appreciation for its
top performers with Employee of the Year and Manager of the Year awards.
A total of 12 employees and 12 managers were recognized from the various
business units. The top awards were given to Lora Lee Lopez and Maria
Grace Capco as Manager of the Year for CSMB and Services, respectively, and to
Carlo Garcia, Sr. Compensation and Benefits Manager, as Back-Office Support
Employee of the Year. Also present at the event to hand the
awards are Ms. Donna Grande, HR Director and Mr. Ramon Villacorta, Portfolio
Director. “Throughout my career, I had the
opportunity to join some of the greatest technology workers in the world such
as Dell himself and contributing to the growth and expansion working on
different exciting roles.
"These different roles have also enabled me
to work with some of the brightest and passionate people in so many different
countries and cultures that I am constantly inspired by leaders I worked with," founder Michael Dell says it so well. "Technology is about enabling human
potential,” Teo intimated. Dell listens to customers and delivers
innovative technology and services they trust and value. Uniquely enabled by its
direct business model, Dell is a leading global systems and services company
and No. 34 on the Fortune 500. For more information, visit www.dell.com, or to communicate
