Jerry Inzerillo calls it the “ eye of tiger .” Pierre Jochem refers to the fire “ in your belly .” In both cases , they say either you have it , or you don ’ t , because that is exactly what a very successful and long-standing hotel career requires .
A burning passion to win and classic hotelkeeping style define both of HOTELS 2021 Hotelier of the World award winners . They are completely dedicated and use some old-school style to feed what is seemingly an unquenchable desire to serve . Yes , it is hard to teach that level of intensity , and likely why the readers of HOTELS chose Inzerillo , CEO of Diriyah Gate Development Authority in Riyadh , Saudi Arabia , as HOTELS 2021 Corporate Hotelier of the World , and Jochem , general manager and senior vice president of operations for La Mamounia in Marrakech , Morocco , as the Independent Hotelier of the World .
