Meet the NEWH, Inc. C-Suite

I

n order ensure and maintain excellence within the organization, NEWH, Inc. has
made some changes to its office leadership team, creating new CEO, COO, and
CFO positions. These roles will continue to run NEWH, Inc. in collaboration with

the dedicated and talented management team. Here, get to know a bit more about our
C-Suite, and join us in offering our many congratulations to Jena, Susan, and Shelia!

Shelia Lohmiller, CEO
Over 36 years with NEWH, what are you most proud of?
The people are the highlights of my time with NEWH. The people have
accomplished so much and made me so proud. We have given over $8
million to students who needed financial assistance to achieve their dreams
of a career in hospitality. My heart wants to explode when I think of it. We
have supported women, helping them break through the glass ceiling of
a male-dominated industry. We have been there for members when they
have been in need. We are ensuring we have equity, inclusion, and diversity
in all of our initiatives. We are family and I am proud to be a part of it.
What does your new role entail?
My-and NEWH's-plans are to continue to try to keep our industry
connected. I don't necessarily see my role changing since becoming CEO.
I will continue to lead a great team and work with our chapters to see
that they continue to flourish and grow. We will continue our international
expansion, one chapter at a time, seeing that each has a solid foundation
that will ensure success.
Tell us something about yourself that people may not know?
NEWH is who and what I am...and not a surprise to anyone I am sure. Also, I
have six of the most amazing great-grandchildren!
