Female leadership in travel remains lacking

The Castell Project announced that although the awareness around the lack of women and diversity within the hospitality sector grew this past year, not a lot has been done to reverse the status quo. A positive pandemic twist is that the travel industry has the opportunity to re-build better as the industry begins the process of re-setting after roughly 479,000 individuals lost their jobs due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, the private sector pledged to increase female leadership positions by 30-50% and the representation of women within the c-suite by the year 2030.
