Hospitality Inside

“Robert’s international experience, covering US, Europe, Middle East and Asia, is extensive and provides impressive insights into the challenges and opportunities in the global hospitality market which can deliver real value to clients seeking relevant and actionable advice.”

“As Chief Commercial Officer for the Jumeirah Group, Alison’s strongest leadership attributes were the impressive and inclusive way she led the entire Commercial Team, her ability to balance long-term strategy with short-term actions and confronting the hard conversations and decisions with honesty and diplomacy. She stubbornly refused to walk away from a challenge and was a much valued and trusted member of my leadership team.”

“Alison’s skills lie in her unique ability to deeply connect with others, her coaching and mentoring skills as well as her organisation and creation of new programmes and processes. The EMEA region was indeed a complex one, consisting of many markets and cultures and Alison has managed these complexities with professionalism and poise.”

“Mike has the ability to take a broad view of the situation, distilling complexity and ambiguity to provide sound judgement. As a business leader he is values driven, fully embracing the best ethical standards of our group.”

“During his eleven years with the Jumeirah Group, Robert played a major leadership role in the success of the company as it expanded across the world.

He is equally conversant and confident with the negotiation of new hotel development projects as he is with providing leadership and oversight for the management of hotel operations.

Robert has complete commitment to doing business with the highest level of honesty and integrity whilst delivering superior results.”

“I can’t say enough about how talented Alison is, and how fortunate I feel to have worked with her and seen her in action.  She is a supreme diplomat, has incredible business acumen and easily takes what is often a very complex situation and makes it seem simple.

Alison’s ability to lead project teams, manage relationships and achieve significant productivity and profit improvements surpassed all expectations.  The return on the investment was considerable.”

“Alison is focussed, strategic, detailed and drives teams to deliver exceptional results. Passionate, positive and able to provide various stakeholder groups the confidence to deliver at all times.”

“Upon  joining our group, Mike O’Mahoney demonstrated a rapid understanding of the organisation and the wider business context, taking stock of the opportunities and leading discussions about the strategic financial vision for the business. In doing so, he gained the confidence of all parties including the Board of Directors.”

“We met Robert whilst undertaking an operator selection for our luxury resort.

We developed an excellent rapport with Robert, who rapidly understood our vision and expectations and helped us navigate complex challenges.

Robert’s track record and personal commitment to our project gave us confidence that he could work in partnership with us.”

“I have worked with Alison for almost 20 years, most recently at the Langham Hospitality Group. She quickly established herself as a highly respected and effective leader in the eyes of our owners, hotels, clients and her peers as we developed a luxury brand and expanded our global presence. She is results driven, strategic and sets high, yet realistic standards for herself and her teams.”

“Robert is the consummate professional, with tremendous business acumen, extraordinary work ethics, laser focus on excellence, and a clear understanding of the needs of the luxury market. He was universally respected and trusted by both operators and owners.”
