Guild chief executive Philip Carlisle said: Ã¢â¬ÅâœThe GTMC executive council could be likened to a board of directors for a commercial enterprise and as such it is responsible for the strategic development of the guild.

The coming two years will present a unique set of challenges, both for the guild itself and the business travel sector, and it will be the executiveââ¬â¢s responsibility to lead and guide the way forward for the travel management community.

ââ¬ÅâœAjay Sodha and Adam White both bring extensive industry experience to the executive council and we are delighted to have them on board.ââ¬~
