AHLEF “Women in Hospitality Leadership 2019” report now available
Castell Project’s annual benchmark report on “Women in Hospitality Industry Leadership 2019” is now available at no charge.
Women are now about half of director-level employees in hotel companies, which is progress. But, only one in 22 CEOs and one in nine presidents are women. There clearly is a disconnect where highly competitive women are not being considered for promotion.
Data driven companies and broad international studies show that companies with gender diverse leadership drive higher profits. A move from no female leaders to 30 percent representation is associated with a 15 percent increase in the net revenue margin, according to a study of 22,000 firms.
The Castell Project appreciates the support of American Hotel & Lodging Educational Foundation, which brings this annual research project to you. And we appreciate your interest in opening leadership opportunities to strong contributors throughout the hotel industry.
