Ensemble has announced it has become the first travel advisor consortium to partner with Women Leading Travel & Hospitality, a membership-based association that connects executive women across all sectors of the travel and hospitality industry. Through this partnership, Ensemble and Women Leading Travel & Hospitality will work together to unite, inspire and empower Ensemble’s team of female executives and its membership by providing resources, support and motivation to achieve personal and professional growth.
“This affiliation is a natural fit for Ensemble which has long been committed to supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion in all aspects of its business,” said Kristina Boyce, senior vice president of operations for Ensemble. “We are also proud and privileged to boast that Ensemble’s leadership team includes several women in key executive roles in operations, marketing, partner relations and editorial to numerous vice president and director roles in marketing, operations and technology. We also have a membership comprised of many women business owners and managers and are always creating partnerships that will help them grow their businesses as well.”
Women Leading Travel & Hospitality was founded in 2019 and has quickly grown into a leading organization for women in the travel industry, offering a range of programs and resources to support and advance women's leadership. Its partnership with Ensemble will enable the organization to reach a broader audience of travel advisors and suppliers, while also providing Ensemble's members with valuable networking and development opportunities.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Ensemble to Women Leading Travel & Hospitality as a corporate partner,” says Hannah DeMaio, vice president, Women Leading Travel. “Through our events, content, and learning and development programming, our corporate partnerships enable groups of women executives to become better leaders and more engaged employees.”
Among the benefits for Ensemble’s team include attending the inaugural Women Leading Travel & Hospitality Summit and regional events as well as access to personalized education, training, recruitment and career opportunities on an exclusive member-only job board. The partnership with Women Leading Travel & Hospitality builds on several new initiatives that Ensemble has launched over the past several months including the launch of a new hotel and marketing programs; new print and digital magazines; new branding including a series of annual events; and several new appointments in operations, technology, marketing and member and supplier solutions.
