Mission

The mission of the Women's Hospitality Leadership Forum (WHLF) is to join industry leaders, employees, and students to promote leadership excellence among women in all segments of the hospitality industry.

Conference Goals

The Women's Hospitality Leadership Forum was an idea that came to fruition through the initiative of the UCF National Society of Minorites in Hospitality (NSMH) and the support of UCF's Rosen College of Hospitality Management, with our first conference held in 2015. Our theme this year is "New Era of Inclusion: Performance Driven," as we seek to advance and support women in the lodging, food and beverage, tourism, theme park, and event management sectors. This unique forum will offer inspiring keynote speakers, panels, and networking opportunities.
