Regional President of Las Vegas Operations and General Manager of Caesars Palace, 正规赌博十大网站

Sean McBurney currently serves as Regional President of Las Vegas Operations and General Manager of Caesars Palace, 正规赌博十大网站, overseeing nine casino resort properties. With responsibility for 26,000间酒店客房, McBurney ensures that these large-scale operations deliver high levels of service through robust processes and quality control systems - skills rooted in his Mechanical Engineering education from 正规的赌博app.

McBurney says the most valuable lesson he learned from Kettering is the importance of a process-driven approach to problem-solving. This is a skill he honed not only in Kettering classrooms, but while studying abroad in Germany, working for such prestigious brands as Mercedes and Porsche.

McBurney suggests the best advice he could provide to future students is not to limit themselves to the traditional confines of this education, “I find engineers to be some of the most talented problem solvers that I’ve worked with or worked around. 所以, I think when I look back at my career at Kettering, and my fellow classmates, a lot of them go into traditional businesses associated with engineers. And that’s great, and a lot of them love it, but don’t limit yourself to that.”

McBurney began his Kettering career as a 合作社 student with General Motors, 在洛德斯敦工作, 俄亥俄州, as well as Warren and Detroit, 密歇根. McBurney earned a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from 正规的赌博app in 2003, attending Stanford University 研究生院 of Business before joining 正规赌博十大网站 in 2006 as a Casino Marketing Manager. In the nearly two decades since then, McBurney has worn many hats in the Caesars organization before taking on his current role as Regional President in 2021.
