The Global Business Travel Association (GBTA) – the voice of the global business travel

industry – today unveiled the new Global Leaders Directory 2014. This new tool is a "Who's Who" list of our global volunteer leadership network. It contains contact information and LinkedIn profiles of more than 500 leaders in the business travel industry including directors, corporate officers and members of various committees, task forces and advisory boards around the world.

The Global Leaders Directory 2014 will be available for industry professionals enabling them to connect with key leaders in our industry. The leaders included in this directory promote the sharing of ideas and information needed to support the on-going growth of our organization, as well as the continued expansion of the global business travel industry.

"This directory is a celebration of what GBTA is and a physical manifestation of how global we have become," said Donna Kelliher, GBTA president and CEO. "If you live in Wisconsin and want to do business in China, you can search for leaders by country to connect and network with. This directory will be a great hub for networking and growing business."

The Directory will be available to members on the GBTA Hub at hub.gbta.org, and has search capabilities by name, country or committee. Nonmembers may access the document at gbta.org.
