ABOUT VICKIE KOLIAS
Every organization, no matter its size, industry or clientele, has a single resource whose value outweighs all others – its people. Whether it’s the senior leadership team driving enterprise strategy or customer-facing team members executing on day-to-day deliverables, no organization can thrive without an engaged workforce that is continually evolving their skills. As a learning and development expert, I\'ve positively impacted the organizations I\'ve partnered with through innovative and engaging curriculum design and strategy:GAME CHANGERRevamped L&D platform for MGM Resorts International, a Fortune 500 company and a leader in the gaming and hospitality industry. This refresh included a suite development programs addressing the specific needs of property and corporate managers of different operations; senior leadership development programs for directors, executive directors and executives.REDEVELOPMENT & REBRANDINGEstablished and executed strategy behind a companywide refresh of new hire orientation. Shifted focus from “orientation” to enculturation, led my design team in the formation Navigating Our World, MGM Resorts’ gamified learning experience for new hires that incorporates adult learning principles in a real world setting. INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITIONEarned awards and recognitions that have added additional credibility and executive support to new development strategies and programs I have initiated throughout my career.
