let the brightest star shine down on the laureates


At HoteliersGuild we are fortunate and honoured to count with the incredible support of Preferred Hotels & Resorts’ CEO, our longtime member Lindsey Ueberroth, who is also Hon. Co-founder of both, the HoteliersGuild Academy of Hospitality Arts as well as the LeadingHôtelières chapter. Her parents were inducted into the HoteliersGuild Hall of Fame a few years ago, and we cherish a very productive and successful working relationship. Philanthropy remains a core family value at Preferred Hotels & Resorts since its inception more than 50 years ago. Believing that the positive actions of a few can make a positive impact on many, Preferred Hotels & Resorts created GIFTTS Great Initiatives for Today’s (Tomorrow’s) Society. A CHERISHED PARTNERSHIP FOR OUR NOBLE CAUSES!

While trends come and go, the art of hospitality is an everlasting constant. It is exactly this that makes people feel welcomed through personal interactions, which is at the core of our programs. As leaders and educators in tourism and hospitality, our academy can therefore make a small, yet important contribution to a better future world. WE SHARE THE SAME VALUES!

Renowned designers/suppliers will be offered the opportunity to design and produce the winners’ trophies (probono!)

PERFECT PARTNERS TO DESIGN THE ACADEMY AWARD WINNER TROPHY!

Why we Do What we Do Our objective is to create an extended awards concept under the umbrella of HoteliersGuild’s International Hall of Fame for renowned current and emerging future generations of younger hospitality professionals to recognise achievements in the hospitality industry.

Our main reason is to give back to the industry we all love, to nurture the young generation of aspiring future leaders and to convince as many colleagues as possible that it is worth their while to leave behind a better world with enhanced opportunities for all. Luxury sustainability, responsible travel, gender equality and equal access to education indeed creates a win-win situation for all of us and therefore needs to be actively supported by those who are able to contribute with bundled expertise and financial contributions!

NOT JUST ‘YET ANOTHER AWARD’! It cannot be our intention to re-invent the wheel! We are, of course, aware that there are already too many award organisations out there quite a few of them basing their ‘business model’ on 'selling' awards…We do this by

• taking advantage of the standing of our prestigious private society and the various initiatives of industry and by securing the support of our high- profile existing and future alliance partners.

• creating a concept that is decisively differentiated by the integration of academia from internationally respected universities, hotel schools and well established leaders from the hospitality industry, including architects&designers, Chefs*ffes, expert journalists etc.

• collaborating closely with a highly regarded charity programme and an emphasised focus on the promotion of young talent, mentoring and grooming of future generation leaders, by supporting them with e.g. scholarships at our institutes alliance partners.


Therefore, it is ever so important from the outset to highlight some of our distinctive differentiating features. • the concept is based on scientific competence and is monitored by our academia partners

• potential candidates and nominees are selected according to the strict requirements of our Code of Conduct

• HoteliersGuild is a recognises ForceForGood with a mission to boldly advance SUSTAINABILITY, SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY and principled business practice with ACCOUNTABILITY and TRANSPARENCY via our alliances with experts, research and studies supervised by university professors, and the support from internationally renowned hoteliers/groups with state-of-the- art and proven sustainable practices in place. It is our pledge TO HONOUR EXCELLENCE, TO CONNECT GENERATIONS and TO PRESERVE HOSPITALITY HISTORY

• we are in an elevated position to support the concept furthermore via our ForumOfDialogue, our LeadingHôtelières and HoteliersForGood initiatives, with bundled expertise on research, responsible travel, sustainable architecture, conscious cuisine...

• resilient study results (EHL/IPB/IUAS...) with already agreed implementation in selected flagship hotels for testing

• a not-for-profit private society that reviews and bestows awards on hotels, resorts, architects/designers, spas, products, restaurants and Chefs...under the above mentioned prerequisites.

• organise A COVETED AWARD EVENT TO MARK A DISTINCTIVE YEAR OF HIGHEST PERFORMANCE IN THE INTERNATIONAL HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY

• The Coveted Academy Sirius Awards - The Sirius Star is one of the brightest in the night sky - https://en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/

• Labels such as ‘5-star...’, ‘Platinum or Diamonds/Gold etc’ will be avoided. Hence “Sirius”, the brightest star in the sky, which shines down on the winners.
