Bob Roliardi

Executive Vice President
Sales, Marketing and Services
Pearson Curriculum

Bob Roliardi is the Executive Vice President for Sales, Marketing and Services at Pearson Curriculum.

Bob is well-prepared for his assignment to lead this group of over 1,000 Pearson People, the largest U.S. school publisher with its market-leading brands in the areas of core texts, supplemental material and digital instructional systems.

He has spent 30 years in the school publishing business. His assignments have been varied, and include experience in the technology business during its pioneering days of the late ‘70s.

Thirty years ago he was a school counselor. Through a combination of a desire to do something different and good fortune, he had the opportunity to enter the school publishing business. That good fortune sent him down a road that has totally consumed his professional life, and greatly shaped his personal feelings about how students of all ages learn.

Bob’s greatest interests in the Pearson business center on addressing the learning styles of today’s and tomorrow’s students, and initiatives to help the teaching process, wherever learning takes place. Inside Pearson, his focus is on organizational development and the development of Pearson People.

Bob makes his home in Scottsdale, Arizona, is married to an evolving artist, has two young adult children, and is a proud new grandfather. He finds great solitude in the western wilderness.
