Whirlpool Corporation

I started with Whirlpool just after we struck the deal to acquire KitchenAid,” says Whirlpool Corporation Vice President of Global Information Services, who has been with the company for more than 35 years. I ran point on not only helping the entire team be successful with all the technology and working cross-functionally, but also on integrating the organizations during the acquisition, and then figuring out how we were going to consolidate the systems and move everything into a common standard. Perhaps his team’s toughest task in recent years was ensuring that thousands of Whirlpool Corporation employees were able to have the right equipment and technology to work from home during the COVID-19 quarantine. I’m going to miss the team, but I’m looking forward to a diversion right now of not having to be on phone calls at any hour…especially early morning.

Whirlpool Corporation and Sellersburg Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc. have resolved litigation relating to Sellersburg’s online sales of third-party appliance replacement parts and accessories that Whirlpool alleged gave consumers a mistaken impression that the products were affiliated with Whirlpool Corporation. Our brands convey our promise to consumers to provide high quality products,” said Doug Searles, General Manager of the Consumer Products Group at Whirlpool Corporation. After the lawsuit was filed, Sellersburg took steps to modify its online advertisements to make clearer to consumers that the third-party parts and accessories being offered for sale were not affiliated with or endorsed by Whirlpool Corporation. As part of the settlement agreement, Sellersburg has agreed to pay Whirlpool Corporation an undisclosed monetary amount and committed to instituting new business practices to ensure that its future online product listings would not infringe Whirlpool’s intellectual property.
