renewing the partnership
Holiday Inn Suva announced the renewal of their partnership with Leadership Fiji as their venue partner for
another term providing for its program launch, etiquette dinner and graduation, along with other major events.
Leadership Fiji is an independent, non-partisan, non-aligned entity that was established in 2000. The Program
allows participants to explore their own values, philosophies, prejudices, and beliefs through a variety of issues
offered by the program and offers direct interaction with current leaders across the private sector, civil society,
and Government. It also has a community of aspirational leaders who aim to advance business and commerce in
Fiji to a new height.
“We are pleased to renew our venue partnership with Leadership Fiji as part of IHG’s Journey to Tomorrow
sustainability strategy. As a brand, we are committed to making a positive difference in the communities where
we operate, and this partnership allows us to contribute to the development and empowerment of the next
generation of leaders in Fiji. We believe that sustainable tourism is about building strong partnerships and creating
a lasting impact, and we look forward to continuing our work with Leadership Fiji towards this shared goal.”
commented Lachlan Walker, Area General Manager South Pacific, IHG Hotels & Resorts.
Leadership Fiji’s strategic vision is to establish a Leadership Academy for Fiji and the Pacific and to expand its
offering of leadership programs from its current program to across all levels of society.
Holiday Inn Suva’s General Manager, Mohammed Feroz said “Holiday Inn Suva prides itself on diverse talent that
brings True Hospitality to Life for our guests, owners, colleagues, and partners. We are honored to strengthen our
partnership with an organization such as Leadership Fiji which helps individuals achieve their full potential and
gain the skills and confidence, they need to heighten their career progression.”
Leadership Fiji’s Chief Executive Officer, Sharyne Fong said, “We are always grateful to Holiday Inn Suva for their
support since 2021 and for being our venue partner for our events. This highlights the confidence that Holiday Inn
Suva has in supporting us in developing leaders in Fiji and we thank Lachlan, Feroz and their team for their
