The International Society of Female Professionals Recognizes Vicki Maleganeas
Vicki Maleganeas has over 25 years of experience in the roles of Director of Operations, Supply Chain Organization, and Team Building & Leadership. Currently, as Product Group Manager for CSA Group International, she oversees field management for the group. Having started out in hospitality management, she worked her way up within the field and is known for her strong leadership skills.
In this role, she managed a remote team of 10 certifiers and oversaw day-to-day operations and project oversight to ensure alignment with short-/long-term business goals and objectives. She led multiple projects from conception through to final approval and deliverables within projected deadlines and budgets. She also evaluated deliverables for compliance and resolved all non-conformance issues with corrective actions, and managed all aspects of project scheduling, including milestones and goals for each phase.
Vicki is known for her expertise in operations management, change management and process improvement and team leadership experience, and specializes in providing strategic guidance, direction, and perspective in all areas of enterprise operations and service delivery. This includes supply chain management and logistics oversight, business development, and customer/supplier management across multiple divisions. She has had a very diverse career, from hospitality, automotive, aerospace, safety regulations, injection molding, electronics, manufacturing, and operations.
With her heart on her sleeve, she always put others before her own wellbeing. Her theory in life -professional and personal, is that a smile does not cost us anything. That smile can change someone’s attitude 360 degrees. She says that now is a time to go back to basics of honesty, being human, showing that you care, admitting to failure, and having a chance to be successful.
She believes in leading from within, vision and purpose, passionate, transparent, integrity, coaching, honesty, confidence, and inspiration. She shows commitment and is passionate, a superior communicator, has accountability, is innovative, and values empathy, resilience, and humility. Vicki was a living kidney donor in 2007 for an acquaintance who became a lifelong friend.
Vicki holds a degree in Business for Organizations from a school in Canada, and is currently completing her PMP certification through PMI. Looking ahead, she plans to see where her skillset will benefit a Director Operations position. She is willing to relocate and travel. A humanitarian by heart, she credits her success to the fact she would rather give than receive. Vicki’s motto is to live life to the fullest, and be open to new adventures. She says if life is pushing you down, just get up and go, even if it’s for the weekend. It is important to rest your mind and soul.
