THE AMERICAN HOTEL & Lodging Association is set to host the inaugural General Manager Summit at “The Hospitality Show” on June 28 at The Venetian Resort Las Vegas. The first-of-its kind event will be held annually and bring together hotel GMs from across the country to hear from expert speakers, share best practices and network.
The event will also celebrate the industry’s best GMs via an awards ceremony, AHLA said in a statement.
“General Managers are the backbone of any hotel, and that’s precisely why AHLA offers this important group of professionals a host of top-notch professional development, networking and event opportunities,” said Chip Rogers, president and CEO of AHLA. “AHLA’s General Manager Summit at The Hospitality Show is the can’t-miss event of the year for GMs, and we're excited to see you there this June.”
AHLA said the event is free for all GMs attending The Hospitality Show, which takes place June 27-29 at The Venetian Las Vegas, but GM summit attendees must register for the event here.
