Hotel in Pune Welcomes New Hotel Manager, Hemant Tenneti

PUNE, INDIA--(Marketwired - Jun 11, 2014) - Starting a new job can be intimidating, but for Hemant Tenneti, it signals excitement rather than fear. With more than 15 years of experience in the food & beverage and conventions fields, Tenneti is poised for success in his new position as the Hotel Manager of the Courtyard Pune Chakan.

Before taking on the role at this Pune business hotel, Tenneti worked with hotelier giants including Taj and Accor Hotels, and was part of the team that worked on the pre-opening of South Asia's largest convention center, Hyderabad International Convention Centre (Novotel Hyderabad), in 2006. In 2011 he joined the Marriott family, taking on the role of Director of Food & Beverage at the Renaissance Mumbai Convention Centre Hotel and Marriott Executive Apartments.

In his new position as manager at this premier Pune hotel, Tenneti will be responsible for overseeing the daily hotel operations, brand management and positioning strategies; developing strategy; delivering revenues and costs; and ensuring rewarding relationships with the associates to stay in line with Marriott's strong HR values.

"I am very excited to be taking on this new role," he says, "and thrilled that my new position keeps me within the Marriott family. The success of the Courtyard Pune Chakan is clearly a sign of its hard-working associates, and I look forward to working with each and every person to ensure we continue along that path."

Tenneti has been recognized for his leadership and work ethic with honors including the Taj Business Excellence Award in 2003 and Marriott F&B Excellence Award (Asia Pacific) in 2012. His success is a testament not only to his work experience and education at the Indian Institute of Management in Kozhikode, India, where he received an Executive diploma in business management, but to his passion, which he brings to his new position at this Pune hotel.
