Women We Admire is pleased to announce The Top 50 Women Leaders in Hospitality for 2025
NEW YORK, Aug. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Women We Admire is pleased to announce The Top 50 Women Leaders in Hospitality for 2025. The hospitality industry is a cornerstone of the global economy, built on delivering memorable guest experiences and fostering strong, engaged teams. While women represent more than half of the hospitality workforce, they remain underrepresented in senior leadership roles, especially at the executive and board levels. The leaders recognized this year are closing that gap, bringing the expertise, vision, and influence needed to open more seats at the table and shape the industry's future.
Among this year's awardees is Amanda Reed, Director of Sales and Marketing for Thompson Central Park at the Hyatt Hotels Corporation. Reed spearheaded the repositioning of the Thompson brand's largest asset through a full renovation and supports brand-level prospecting initiatives and overall best practices. She streamlines success by leveraging brand-wide partnerships with top companies, leads sales efforts and programming in all food and beverage outlets, and manages day-to-day activity with public relations and social media agencies.
We also honor industry veteran Theresa van Greunen, who has 25 years of leadership experience in the hospitality industry. She is the Assistant Vice President of Corporate Communications at Aqua-Aston Hospitality, where she is known for her innovative approach. She works cross-functionally with various disciplines across the organization to ensure collaboration and coordination, and she is passionate about mentorship and has hosted communications interns for the company nearly every year since joining, fostering the next generation of leaders in the field.
Finally, we recognize the accomplishments of Janine Anderson, Director of Sales and Catering for First Hospitality, a nationally recognized hospitality development and management company. Having worked for various hotel organizations, Anderson has a record of boosting sales and revenues in every role. She is responsible for the flawless execution of event management with impeccable customer service. Under her leadership, her teams always performed to the highest standards, and their reputation for excellence drove hotel event revenues above target levels year after year.
Please join us in celebrating the accomplishments of The Top 50 Women Leaders in Hospitality for 2025.
