TEAM OVERVIEW

The KKR Capstone team is comprised of former operators and management consultants who work closely with KKR investment teams and portfolio‑company management to drive value creation.
We believe people are a business’s most critical asset—from senior leaders to front‑line employees. Accordingly, we design equity plans that include the entire workforce. This approach began with our Industrials team and has since been adopted across all of Americas Private Equity and, increasingly, other regions and strategies.
The impact on morale, engagement, and alignment has been remarkable. See our YouTube channel for videos such as:

Our commitment extends well beyond ownership. We invest heavily in worker safety, financial resilience and wellbeing, community engagement, employee education, and worker voice initiatives to drive holistic engagement and a high-performance ownership culture. See our latest thought leadership piece on this work. To unify these efforts, we created the Human Capital Center (HCC), which provides resources, best practices, and standards for investment teams and portfolio‑company leaders worldwide.
We also partner with Ownership Works, a non‑profit dedicated to scaling shared ownership to address economic insecurity, narrow wealth gaps, and strengthen companies and communities.

Create and manage content (tailor ownership trainings, compile best practices, update portfolio company resource portal, experiment with new technology).
Conduct research and analysis on strategic topics (retirement programs, safety performance, financial‑resilience adoption, medical‑benefits optimization).
