Johnson Controls has appointed Todd Grabowski as vice president and president, Americas, effective October 1, 2025. He will oversee strategy and execution in the region, with a focus on expanding market share and improving customer outcomes. Grabowski will report directly to CEO Joakim Weidemanis and join the company’s executive committee. He succeeds Nate Manning, who will leave Johnson Controls at the end of the year after serving in a special advisor role.
Weidemanis said Grabowski’s combination of technical and commercial expertise will support the company’s growth strategy. “His decades of leadership, particularly in our HVAC business, is a testament to his ability to drive growth in complex, mission-critical environments, while keeping customers at the center of everything we do,” he stated.
Grabowski most recently served as president of Global Data Centers & Applied Equipment. He began his career at Johnson Controls more than 30 years ago in the North America field organization, later taking on leadership roles in Global Products, including Air Handling Units and Applied Equipment in the Americas. He also led the development of the company’s Data Center business.
Grabowski holds a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from Michigan State University and a Master of Science in Management from Walsh University. He has also served on the Board of Directors and Executive Committee of the Cleveland Mechanical Contractor Association.
Weidemanis thanked Manning for his service, adding: “I also want to thank Nate for his dedication and commitment to Johnson Controls and serving the Americas region. We wish him well and thank him for his service.”
