J.W. Marriott, Jr. is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Marriott International, Inc., one of the world's largest lodging companies. His leadership spans more than 50 years, and he has taken Marriott from a family restaurant business to a global lodging company with more than 3,100 properties in 67 countries and territories. Mr. Marriott's vision for the company is to be the world's lodging leader. It is grounded in his intense focus on taking care of the guest, extensive operational knowledge, the development of a highly skilled and diverse workforce, and offering the best portfolio of lodging brands in the industry. Under his leadership, Marriott continues to enjoy strong customer, owner and franchise preference, steady growth and profitability. Known throughout the industry for his hands-on management style, Mr. Marriott has built a highly regarded culture that emphasizes the importance of Marriott's people and recognizes the value they bring to the organization. Marriott International's "spirit to serve" culture is based on a business philosophy more than 80 years ago by his parents, J. Willard and Alice S. Marriott – "Take care of the associate, and they'll take care of the guest." Today, approximately 300,000 Marriott associates are serving guests in Marriott managed and franchised properties throughout the world.
