Speaking of the win, Lela Gogochuri, Director of Revenue Management at The Westin London City commented: ‘‘This accolade is a result of a combination of factors, requiring unwavering dedication to keeping abreast of global economic trends, meticulous attention to even the slightest shifts in the London market, and a deep understanding of the fluctuations in dynamics within the 5-star and luxury hotel sector each quarter. It encompasses effectively conveying insights and suggesting strategies to our General Manager and the broader sales strategy team to ensure alignment with expectations and plans. It also entails an open-minded approach, a drive to excel, maintaining positivity during challenging times or situations, envisioning the larger picture, and inspiring teams to believe in the proposed strategy. At times, revenue leaders may encounter obstacles, but with a belief that nothing is unattainable, making bold decisions, and persisting diligently, outstanding outcomes can be achieved alongside the teams. Their dedication and hard work extend beyond accommodation revenue to encompass F&B and Spa revenue, reflecting a holistic commitment to our guests’ experience. I am particularly proud of our Reservations Manager, Natalija, who has demonstrated exceptional leadership delivering on the strategy, coupled with her vast experience in Luxury and 5-star hotel reservations operations she is certainly an invaluable asset to our team.’’
