Trina Evans, KeyCorp’s Executive Vice President, who is also the company’s Chief of Staff and Director of Corporate Center, has been awarded the prestigious 2022 Women of Note Award from Crain’s Cleveland Business.
This is in recognition of her ability to “influence culture, gain business alignment and successfully implement enterprise-wide change”. She has invested nearly 30 years at Key.
During this time, she has led the bank’s call centres, advanced and accelerated the company’s long legacy in diversity, equity and inclusion, and has orchestrated the extension and expansion of KeyBank’s National Community Benefits Plan.
She currently oversees enterprise communications, media relations, digital and traditional marketing, employee and client experience, continuous improvement, board relations, government relations, community development, philanthropy and diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Evans is a member of the senior executive team, and reports directly to the CEO.
Playing an active role in the community, Evans serves in executive positions on the Boards of Trustees of the Greater Cleveland Sports Commission, Cuyahoga Community College Foundation, College Now scholarship fund, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and in the Weatherhead School of Management Visiting Committee.
She is also a member of the National Association of Corporate Directors.
She has also been recognized as a Woman to Watch by Diversity Magazine and by the YWCA as a Woman of Achievement.
KeyCorp president and CEO Christopher Gorman, who has known and worked with Evans for 20 years, mentioned the following on the impact Crain has had in the community.
“Trina brings a versatile and dynamic set of skills to her role,” said Gorman. “While Trina demonstrates business acumen and a strategic mindset, she is best known and respected for her authenticity and emotional intelligence. She is a highly trusted partner and adviser who influences others, cultivates culture, and gains the alignment necessary to move the business forward. Trina is a culture carrier at KeyBank and a wonderful ambassador for our reputation and brand.”
