About Juan Taveras
I’m an experienced HR and People Operations leader with more than 20 years of experience helping mission-driven organizations align people, culture, and strategy. My work centers on building inclusive, high-performance environments where both people and organizations thrive.Throughout my career, I’ve led HR functions across the nonprofit and for-profit sectors — overseeing everything from talent management and compensation strategy to DEI, operations, and organizational design. I’ve served as a trusted advisor to CEOs and executive teams, helping them navigate growth, culture shifts, and large-scale organizational change.I’m drawn to organizations that pair purpose with performance — places where people strategy is core to business success. I bring both strategic insight and hands-on leadership, with a commitment to creating workplaces where everyone feels seen, supported, and empowered to do their best work.On a more personal note, I am a husband, a father, and an entrepreneur. In my spare time, you can find me helping with homework, playing with my kids, working on house projects, cooking, or watching romantic comedies with my wife.Education and Certifications- Bachelor’s degree, Business Administration and Hospitality Management - Syracuse University- Master’s degree, Business Administration – University of Dubuque- Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR)- HR Certification Institute- Diversity and Inclusion for HR Certification - Cornell University- Senior Leaders Program for Nonprofit Professionals – Columbia Business School
