Green Hotel/Resort Ecomanagers

Ecomanagers who work for large organizations may advance through the company's ranks to more senior management positions, overseeing more resorts in different regions and managing more departments and employees. Advancement may come from introducing new programs, structures, or functions that improve the resort's operations and elevate it to higher levels of sustainability. Honing management skills, learning more about sustainable practices and operations, and sharing knowledge with staff and customers are other ways ecomanagers advance in their field. Managers may progress by taking on other aspects of the business, such as writing newsletters for the resort's Web site or organizing and leading workshops about eco-resort and environmental issues.
