The American Hotel & Lodging Association (AHLA) has introduced its new board leadership, appointing Thom Geshay, Jon Stanner, and Jolyon Bulley as key members. This recent leadership change was publicly announced in early June 2026 and reflects the organization’s continued efforts within the hotel and lodging industry in the United States.
Board Leadership Focus Areas
The newly formed board leadership has identified several priorities central to its agenda. These include addressing current travel demand challenges, advancing workforce-related initiatives, and enhancing the support provided to AHLA members. While specific strategies or programs have not been detailed, the focus areas indicate a commitment to key aspects
affecting the lodging sector.
As the AHLA steers forward with this governance team, the emphasis remains on responding to evolving industry dynamics tied to guest travel patterns and workforce development, alongside maintaining robust membership engagement throughout the U.S. hotel community.
