Former Unilever executives seem to be in high demand these days. eg. first at Gucci, their CEO was with HB ice cream and now another one is with IHG. Seeing the products made and marketed by Unilever I can only wish the companies they move on too, good luck.
One hopes new Chair will allocate more funds for their IT dept; IHG website is just awful. Just fixing that could increase revenue right away from customers actually able to make a reservation!
