Every job is a sustainability job, and every role is an opportunity for impact. Discover how Trane Technologies' Anna Meier is making an impact by helping building owners optimize performance, reduce energy consumption and create a greener tomorrow.
At Trane Technologies, our purpose is to boldly challenge what’s possible for a sustainable world. We believe every job is a sustainability job, and every role an opportunity for impact.
Discover how Anna Meier connects to our purpose through her work as a Service Sales Account Manager.
With a passion for problem-solving and a deep understanding of both business and engineering, Anna collaborates with building owners, helping them improve HVAC service, preventative maintenance and building automation systems. Beyond this, Anna serves as a trusted advisor, ensuring that customers achieve their energy efficiency goals while navigating the constantly evolving landscape of sustainability. "One of the main reasons I chose a career in sales that was more customer-focused was that I'd be able to problem-solve in the real world and support customers directly,” Meier shared.
Trane Technologies’ 2030 Commitments inspire Anna’s work each day. She believes that sustainability isn’t just about compliance or cost savings. It’s about setting a high standard for responsible business practices and inspiring customers to take meaningful steps to reduce their environmental impact, contributing to a more sustainable tomorrow.
Trane Technologies’ Gigaton Challenge is a bold commitment to reduce one billion metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions (CO2e) from customer carbon footprints by 2030. Anna plays a crucial role in this initiative by guiding customers through asset planning and transitions to lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) refrigerants. "If you're in sales at Trane Technologies, you can have a sustainable impact,” said Meier. “You have the opportunity to help customers choose more efficient solutions for their buildings and focus on energy conservation measures.”
Anna credits much of her career growth to Trane Technologies’ early careers programs the Accelerated Development Program (ADP) and the Graduate Training Program (GTP). Anna took part in the Accelerated Development Program right out of college, which is a rotational program that gives young professionals exposure to multiple areas of the business. She then attended Trane Technologies’ Graduate Training Program, an intensive six-month program that provides deep technical and business knowledge. She describes it as essentially earning a master’s degree in HVAC. Beyond the training programs, she’s built relationships with colleagues across the country, providing a network of friends and mentors she can turn to for advice and support.
"Trane Technologies has been really good to me,” shared Meier. “The culture makes me feel like I'm on a winning team where I can learn a ton from my peers, but also my customers."
With Trane Technologies’ commitment to sustainability, professional growth and inclusivity, Anna envisions a long-term future here and looks forward to expanding her skills, deepening her knowledge and making a lasting impact.
