Learn about how Eaton technologies have shaped Singapore’s power and meet the Singapore team

How has your experience at Eaton been like?

My journey at Eaton has been extremely rewarding, with multiple opportunities for personal and professional growth. Over the course of the past 12 years, I have had the privilege of being based out of multiple countries (India, China & Singapore), working in different business units (Corporate, Hydraulics & Filtration) across various functions (marketing, planning, business development, and more recently sales).

I have been very fortunate to work with exceptional leaders who are not just passionate about the work they do, but also guiding the team to ensure we are given the opportunity to grow. Each of them helped me develop different skill sets, ranging from strategic planning to effective presentation and communication skills. 

How would you describe Eaton’s culture

Eaton’s culture is one that celebrates teamwork and respect for one another. It’s a common thread I’ve observed across the countries, roles and businesses I had the opportunity to work in. It is also the reason why I have thoroughly enjoyed and continue to look forward to working at Eaton.

What was a turning point in your Eaton journey?

There have been many defining moments throughout my time here, but one that I hold close to my heart is my decision to take up the role of Business Planning Manager at the regional headquarters in Shanghai, China.

At that time, I was just 1.5 years into my first role at Eaton which was with the Industrial Business Development team. I would have never envisioned the magnitude of growth the role offered when I made the move. Looking back, it is one of the best decisions I’ve made in my career. 

What do you see in the next 25 years for Eaton?

Markets change, products evolve and customer expectations will be refined over time. The will and ambition of Eaton employees - which have driven our success as  an intelligent power management company - will be key to build our leadership position in the years to come.
