Google has just announced the appointment of Alan Mulally to its Board of Directors and will serve on Google’s Audit Committee. His appointment was effective July 9, 2014.

Mulally joins Google after serving two successful stints at Ford and Boeing. Mulally led Ford through the crisis that rocked the U.S. auto industry and propel the car company into the technology age.
