Virtuoso welcomes newly-elected Canada member advisory board

Virtuoso recently held elections for its global and regional Boards and Committees and eight agency owners and managers from Canada have been appointed to represent their region on various committees.

The team will work with their counterparts across the globe to foster collaboration and innovation, establish best practices and guide network decisions to ensure maximum benefit for agencies and advisors, their clients and preferred partners.

In addition to their committee work, they also dedicate their time and expertise to helping guide practices within their region through their participation on Virtuoso’s Canada Member Advisory Board.

During Virtuoso Travel Week, which PAX covered on location in Las Vegas from August 10-16, outgoing and incoming members of the Canada Member Advisory Board had a chance to meet in person and begin their three-year tenure as board members and advisor advocates.

Outgoing committee board members also agreed to stay on until December 2024 to ensure continuity and a smooth transition.

“The support and guidance of our outgoing Regional Member Advisory Board has been invaluable as we navigated the pandemic and an incredibly busy rebound in the travel industry,” said Úna O’Leary, general manager, Virtuoso Canada, in a statement. “We look forward to welcoming our new board members as we rely on their counsel, new ideas and support of their peers and the entire Virtuoso network.”

The Canada Member Advisory Board is dedicated to championing the interests of Virtuoso members. Their role is to collaborate, innovate and amplify membership voices across the country.

Each member represents a different committee within the Virtuoso network. In addition to supporting the interests of Virtuoso in Canada, each member sits on a global committee dedicated to supporting Virtuosos worldwide.
