Vice President, Global Learning and Leadership Development, Marriott International Inc.

Timothy J. Tobin, vice president, global learning and leadership development, led the way to develop the Leadership Learning Guide — a development resource that maps formal and informal learning to Marriott’s core competencies, and touches about 26,000 property-based management associates.

Estimated cost savings are more than $6 million annually; there are more development opportunities than associates can use; and associates can customize their development experiences based on current or future roles, locations and geography.
