Kaled Awada

Joined Eaton as Chief Human Resources Officer in October 2025. With extensive experience as a Fortune 500 human resources leader, executive team member and public company board member, I have developed a keen ability to translate operational and financial objectives into effective organizational structures, human capital management, and corporate culture. I am driven by a commitment to integrity, equity, and respect for core values, and I have successfully guided organizations through complex transitions, including transformative acquisitions, spin-offs, and separations. As a change agent, I have built highly effective and cost-efficient HR organizations that optimize service delivery and drive business success. Throughout my career, I have realized significant achievements that have made a lasting impact on organizations that I have been a part of. For example, I have been recognized for my role in successfully separating an 8.5 billion division into two organizations driving top line growth and margin expansion. I have also spearheaded the integration of a 1 billion publicly traded company, leading to its successful transition within the organization. Additionally, I have served as a respected sounding board for executive teams, providing valuable human capital perspective during strategic and operational changes.
