The core strength of Four Seasons Resorts Thailand, which includes three exquisite resorts in Chiang Mai, Koh Samui, and Tented Camp Golden Triangle, lies in its dynamic team of women. These women have not only had remarkable careers but also serve as an inspiration. Under the leadership of Smriti Khandelwal, the Senior Director of Marketing, this team comprises empowered, self-assured women from varied cultural, traditional, and background tapestries. “It’s the diversity that makes it thrilling,” Khandelwal expresses with a smile, having carved out a significant role for herself within a team that predominantly consists of Thai members.
