HSMAI Welcomes Brian Hicks as President & CEO, Continuing the Legacy of Innovation and Leadership The Hospitality Sales and Marketing Association International (HSMAI) is proud to announce the appointment of Brian Hicks as its new President and CEO. Hicks, a distinguished hospitality leader with more than 30 years of international experience, steps into this role as only the fifth CEO in HSMAI’s nearly 100-year history, marking a new chapter in the organization's legacy of leadership. His proven track record of driving growth, innovation, and leadership across major hotel brands and regions positions him well to continue building upon the foundation laid by the late Bob Gilbert, who served as President and CEO for 30 years. Hicks’ appointment comes at a pivotal time for HSMAI as the organization continues to expand its global presence and deepen its impact on the hospitality industry’s commercial disciplines. With extensive experience spanning operations, commercial strategy, and revenue management, Hicks’ leadership will further strengthen HSMAI’s commitment to advancing the sales, marketing, and revenue management disciplines across the industry. He assumes leadership of the HSMAI Americas, Foundation and Global entities. “Bob Gilbert’s legacy is reflected in the incredible talent we considered during this process, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. After an extensive search with many exceptional candidates, we are excited to welcome Brian Hicks as our new CEO,” said Andrew Rubinacci, Chief Advisory Officer at FLYR Hospitality, Chair, HSMAI Americas. “Brian’s global experience, having worked and lived in multiple regions, aligns perfectly with HSMAI’s continued international growth.

HSMAI Announces the Passing of President and CEO Bob Gilbert Gilbert Proudly Led the Organization for More than 30 Years, Through Industry-Changing Events Including the 9/11 Terrorist Attacks, 2008 Recession, and Covid-19 Pandemic. It is with profound sadness that the Hospitality Sales and Marketing Association International (HSMAI) Americas, HSMAI Foundation and HSMAI Global, announce that President and CEO, Bob Gilbert passed away on September 19, 2024. In July 2024, the organization announced that Gilbert had accelerated his retirement plan as a result of a serious health issue following 30 years of executive leadership for HSMAI. In his final HSMAI Perspective, Gilbert shared, “I am filled with gratitude for the incredible journey and the profound relationships I have built with so many of you. I am immensely proud of the work we have accomplished together in expanding the association’s reach and impact across the globe, and the fun we have had along the way. It has truly been a privilege to serve our resilient industry.” A beloved friend and admired mentor to many in the hospitality industry, Mr. Gilbert will be missed by the industry at large, and the association will benefit from his leadership for many years to come. To celebrate Bob’s career is to acknowledge his leadership and impact on the hospitality industry. Bob’s passion and commitment have been instrumental in guiding the HSMAI Foundation’s mission to attract, develop, and engage the brightest talents. In recognition of Bob’s legacy, all donations made to the HSMAI Foundation Century Campaign through December 31, 2024, will be considered in his honor. Contributions will support the Foundation’s continued efforts in education, diversity, and leadership development, embodying Bob’s vision for a stronger hospitality community.
