Strategic L&D Partner | Fractional Head of Learning | Leadership Development Expert

Vivian Campbell is a nationally recognized expert in leadership development and organizational learning, with over 20 years of executive experience in hospitality, operations, and team performance.

As founder of Vivian Campbell Consulting, she partners with mid-sized to large companies as a Fractional Head of Learning & Development, helping them build confident leaders, strengthen culture, and align people strategies with business growth — without the cost or complexity of a full-time hire.

Vivian’s career began in the hospitality industry, where she led high-performing teams across hotel openings, customer experience, and service strategy for world-renowned brands. Her work on flagship projects like W Hollywood and The LINE Hotel established her as a go-to leader in guest experience, team culture, and operational excellence.

But it was in building those teams that Vivian found her deeper passion: developing managers into leaders.

Since launching her firm in 2009, she has trained and coached leaders across hospitality, manufacturing, and financial services, designing custom learning programs that don’t just tick boxes but transform culture.

Her clients range from privately held companies scaling for growth to established organizations navigating leadership transitions and talent gaps. Whether through fractional L&D leadership or targeted training intensives, Vivian helps companies create the internal leadership pipelines they need to thrive.

Vivian’s approach is trusted by business owners and HR leaders alike because she doesn’t just train, she embeds, aligns, and activates.

“Most companies promote employees into management but never teach them how to lead. That’s the gap I solve.”

A Los Angeles native, Vivian remains deeply engaged in the local business and nonprofit community, having served as President of the Los Angeles Junior Chamber of Commerce, Board Member of the LA Area Chamber, Chairman of Options House, and Board Member of LA’s Best Friends.
