8 Values of a Successful Team


MGM MIRAGE Events is extremely proud to have recently received the Spotlight Award for “Event Company of the Year” by Event Solutions Magazine. The award, presented at a ceremony held at CityCenter’s beautiful Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Las Vegas, tops off a very productive year. Despite the current economic situation, the dedicated team at MME, together, realized many exceptional accomplishments including significant increases in the number of events produced, sales revenue, and profitability.


More importantly to our cherished customers & partners, value-driven, innovative designs remain the focus of our core business: unique event productions for those specializing in experiential marketing, corporate meeting planning, incentive trips, & social milestone events.



Engaging our entire team in “living” our company Values is the cornerstone of our success. Five years ago, we began an all-encompassing quest to define a strategic plan. The plan includes a specific Mission and Vision, which appear on the right side of this blog. The list of Values is the third critical component. All employees and management live these values daily.


Not surprisingly, our Values are predicated on the acronym CREATIVE.


C – Committed


R – Respectful


E – Enthusiastic


A – Accountable


T – Timely


I – Innovative


V – Value Driven


E – Effective


Over the next 8 blog posts, a member of the team will share their thoughts on one of these values with a brief description of what it means to them individually, and to the team at MGM MIRAGE Events. And naturally, we will include some beautiful photos to view along the way. Enjoy!


C-Committed



Do what you say you’re going to do, when you say you’re going to do it-An important value to uphold for management, as well as employees.


Initiate your own training-Truly committed individuals are constantly looking for ways to improve, and learn new skills.



Be ambitious for the company first-Personal success is a direct reflection of the success of the entire team.
