Ted Teng - President and CEO, Leading Hotels of the World

EXPERT OPINION - Ted Teng has a 30-year track record in the global hospitality industry, working in North America, Hawaii, and Asia Pacific and masterminding the growth of some of the most prominent brands in the world. He was president and COO of Wyndham International and president, Asia-Pacific, for Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide to name but two. He says, "I have guided companies through crisis and survived to see better markets. I have achieved many successes as well as learned many difficult lessons through failures." Now, there is a man with a healthy sense of perspective. He became president and chief executive officer of The Leading Hotels of the World in September 2008 and is based in New York. The 80 year old company represents over 450 luxury hotels. Since he has been at the helm Teng's motto has been to "Preserve, Enhance, and Invent," seeking to honour tradition but provide innovation too. We can't argue with that. http://bit.ly/eM5UjT
