Within the hospitality industry, we can see some of the biggest leaders pushing their companies to achieve more than thought possible. Within the past 20 years specifically though, we have seen certain individuals rise above the usual assessment of leadership to provide their respective companies with the guidance to take them to the next level.
One of the most important leaders to note is Mr. Wilburt Chang of Howard and Johnson International (China). Although you would not expect it, Howard and Johnson Int. opened its 55th hotel in China in 2008. This shows how a company went from only 13 in 2006 to 55 in only 2 years. This is especially important since they only started their operations in 1999.
Another large leader of the Hospitality industry includes Mr. Stephen Schwarzman of The Blackstone Group L.P. The reason Mr. Schwarzman is so important is due to the Hilton hotel chain is managed by The Blackstone Group L.P. This is especially important to note because they control a total asset assessment of $18.845 billion. This means that for each of the 1,440 employees they have, each is worth a little more than $13 million. This is an impressive number when you take into account they they were started only in 1985.
