Moiponyana Tladi, sales executive at Protea Hotel Centurion, has been named Top Sales Executive of the year at the annual Protea Hotels and Marriott Middle East & Africa.
The awards ceremony was held after a three-day conference of the 200-plus Protea Hotels and Marriott Sales, Marketing and Revenue Management teams in Cape Town.
Group Sales Director Dorcas Dlamini says that Tladi’s consistent enthusiasm and experience are a rare combination of qualities which make her a vital part of the Protea Hotels team in building lasting relationships. Having been a notable asset in the Protea Hotels Group’s arsenal for the last five years, Tladi has been a dedicated employee since day one.
“Helping to create strong connections in the area, Tladi’s attention to detail has allowed her to build solid friendships with clients and hotel guests. Her commitment and drive to achieve this level of service has catapulted Protea Hotel’s brand presence in the area. These accomplishments could only have been achieved through hard work, lots of late nights and dedication. We are truly blessed to have her on
Board,” he adds.
