Hotel Industry Board Diversity Report 2023

This annual report on board of director diversity in the hotel industry was compiled by the Pennsylvania State University School of Hospitality Management with support from the American Hotel and Lodging Association Foundation and Castell, an AHLA Foundation project.

Data indicate that from 2021 to 2022 there has been a marked improvement in the percentage of board seats held by Black directors, and a small increase in the number of board seats held by women. However, these gains are largely attributable to merger activity and/or bankruptcy among several firms included in the 2021 sample.
