Background

About Eliakim Odeny

With over 15 years of expertise in hospitality management, education, and training, I bring a wealth of experience in leadership, curriculum development, and student mentorship. Currently serving as the Education Coordinator at Great Lakes Hospitality Institute in Rwanda, I am dedicated to fostering high-quality learning experiences, aligning educational programs with industry demands, and supporting students' career readiness. I also facilitate at the African Management Institute, where I design and deliver impactful training sessions that engage and inspire. I am known for my strong leadership and strategic planning skills, a keen focus on health and safety standards, and an ability to drive operational and financial success. My background includes training staff for major events like the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting and collaborating on initiatives that enhance community health and education. Fluent in English, French, and Swahili, I thrive in multicultural environments and bring a dynamic approach to both management and learning. Open to leadership roles that blend strategic management and hands-on training, I am excited about opportunities that encourage growth, innovation, and meaningful impact in the hospitality and education sectors.
