Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu chief executive William G. Parrett has been named chair of the United States Council for International Business, a pro-trade group with 300 company members. Parrett will begin his two-year-term April 15. He becomes the 20th chairman to lead the organization, which lobbies for a pro-America stance on an array of global business and policy issues. "I am excited about the prospect of leading the USCIB on the international stage," said Parrett in a statement. "Like the Deloitte organization, with member firms around the world, the council is truly multinational, with a worldwide network that reaches into all corners of the world."
