- Mary Lynn Clark, President, Wyndham Vacation Rentals North America
- Carolina Lacerda, Vice President, Jones Lang LaSalle
- Eris Sims, Senior Director of Events Planning, NAACP
Description
Learning Objectives
- How to facilitate on-going career enhancement by “championing” for others in various sectors of the hospitality and tourism industry.
- How to contribute to the professional development of yourself and of others in the field.
- How to effectively and professionally advocate for yourself and others in, and outside of, your organization.
- Understanding organizational culture and protocols within the hospitality and tourism industry.
- The importance of cultivating a diverse work environment in the world of hospitality.
During our panel discussion comprised of successful professionals from all sectors of hospitality (foodservice, lodging, and the meetings industry), we will examine the unique differences between "championing" and mentoring within the industry. Panelists will share how they found their own champion throughout their careers, as well as how they use their current positions to effectively champion for other women in their quest toward achieving high-level positions. They will consider ways in which championing for others has positively impacted their professional careers, along with the careers of those they have chosen to champion for. Panelists will also share ways in which you can champion and advocate for the development and career enhancement of both yourself and other women in all sectors of the hospitality industry.
