By Angelique Platas / January 18, 2024 / Contact Reporter

InterContinental Hotels & Resorts has named long-time company executive Leanne Harwood senior vice president and managing director of its luxury and lifestyle division in the Americas, effective March 1, the hotel company announced Wednesday.

Harwood has also served IHG as VP of operations in Southeast Asia and Korea; commercial VP of Asia, the Middle East and Africa; commercial VP of India, the Middle East and Africa; regional director of sales in multiple regions; and area director of sales, totaling more than 18 years with the hotel company.
