From crisis to hope: Marriott’s journey through COVID-19
A new video from Marriott’s global holiday campaign presents a glimmer of hope, as the travel industry tries to move forward into a new year.
The journey of Marriott in 2020 is a tale of two videos.
At the beginning of the pandemic, CEO Arne Sorenson shared a powerful video message with stakeholders as the company stared down the worst public health crisis in a generation—events that would lead to layoffs and massive global disruption.
Sorenson’s message was shared on Twitter and quickly became a singular example of corporate leadership during the early days of the crisis:
