I am one of the few lucky hotel professionals who got an opportunity to work with Shaun. He is a great leader & mentor. He has a great art of getting more then 100% from all his people. He is a visionary leader & understand his people. Shaun is a great people person & very passionate to develop his people. Being a Regional Head he finds time for all his Direct Reports & gives them full support to showcase their talent. His understanding of hotel business is fantastic. He is a person with very high standards & always challenges his team to deliver high customer service. Every one in IHG just loves him. All inspire to be like him. He is one of the most respected hotelier I have ever come across in SWA.

Shaun clearly is one of the best Leaders I have worked for. He is result driven , honest in his approach and believes in his people. I worked with Shaun in two different capacities , as Hotel manager for Crowne Plaza Gurgaon and thereafter as General Manager for Crowne Plaza Today Okhla when Shaun's my Regional General Manager. Shaun is business savvy and is extremely adaptable to market and business conditions. What is truly admirable is his ability to think ahead and strategize keeping the next 2-5 years of business in mind. He set up some of the most functional systems at Gurgaon which shaped how the hotel is performing over the last 3 years. Also Shaun believes in his people and is a great advocate of development of colleagues and subordinates which is reflected in the fact that he grew 3 General Manager's from within the company in last two years. Shaun is high on integrity and personal conduct and sets a high bench mark for his team. He is someone who pushes hard for results but at the same time stands by his team in tough times ; or gets involved completely for execution if the matter is complex. He shares a great camaraderie with the teams he works with and is a trusted leader. It has been a pleasure working with him and I wish him great success always.
