   Promoted 3X since 2015, I led the launch of a robust, competitive, and relevant 3-tiered talent management program providing high-potential, high-performers with a world-class leadership development program. This initiative required leadership through influence of a cross-functional team of associates, as well as oversight of program governance, budgeting, participant experience, communications, vendor management, KPI measurement, assessment, and evaluation. Focused on year-over-year continuous Improvement, I’m proud of the program’s evolution to be increasingly DEI-focused and to include virtual components well before the pandemic that reduced costs without compromising quality. ⏩PROGRAM SUCCESS SNAPSHOT Measurable growth in employee retention and career advancement.
