Following a four year hotel school management program and placement experience at three of London’s premier hotels, he joined the management ranks of small and medium-sized country hotels before emigrating to Canada in 1975.
Over the course of the following thirty three years, within four Provinces, he was involved in pre-opening senior management roles within two Four Diamond Award hotels, two municipally-owned convention centres, the world’s first retractable domed stadium and with on-going operations of six hotel, conference centre and tourist attraction facilities.
During the 1990s, he was a contributor to the development of the hotel industry in Ontario as a director of the Toronto Hotel Association, president of the Toronto Parklands Hotel Association, a director of Tourism Toronto and a member of the advisory board to the hospitality programs at Centennial College. He was a co-author of Ontario’s Smart Serve program, co-founder of the Toronto Tourism Awards and a keynote speaker at industry and hospitality college gatherings.
Graham retired from the business of hospitality in 2008, resides in southern Ontario, and has a college-aged son embarking on a career in automotive technology.ver menos
