Monika Nerger, Chief Information Officer of Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group, succeeds Jeremy Ward as President of the association. Nerger has served on the Board of Governors since 2012 and as Vice President since 2013. She has been active in HTNG for more than ten years, having previously served as a forum and workgroup chair. "Monika Nerger has been a great evangelist and supporter of HTNG, and no one is more qualified than she to take on the leadership role," said Douglas C. Rice, Chief Executive Officer of HTNG, who continues to manage HTNG's day-to-day operations. Richard Tudgay, Vice President of IT for Omni Hotels & Resorts, was elected as Vice President to fill the vacancy created by Nerger's appointment. Tudgay has served on the Board of Governors since 2009. The succession plan was triggered by the departure of former President Jeremy Ward from his position as Senior Vice President of IT at Kempinski Hotels. Ward accepted a senior executive role with a technology provider, and HTNG's by-laws do not permit vendors to serve on its Governing board or as officers. "Jeremy Ward provided outstanding leadership to HTNG during his tenure as President, and he has been an active board member since 2007. We wish him well in his new role, but we will miss his leadership in the HTNG boardroom," said Monika Nerger.
