BUILD & ELEVATE 2023
May 2-4,2023
Chicago, IL

60% of hoteliers are women, yet only 10% hold leadership roles – according to the Women in Hospitality Industry Leadership 2022 report. Castell’s leadership programs, BUILD and ELEVATE, cultivate a strong leadership identity and prime recognized leaders for high-level advancement. Co-located with AHLA’s ForWard Conference in 2023, participants have a unique opportunity to further their learning by joining ForWard to network and grow alongside others in the industry.

Participating women develop a foundation for career success through a year-long curriculum of skills-based workshops, career coaching and leadership coursework targeting five areas of knowledge including:

• Executive Presence
• Negotiation
• Advocacy
• Career Development
• Networking
