The formation of Travel + Leisure Co. in January this year marked an important milestone in the career trajectory of its president Noah Brodsky.

The new organization, which came about after Wyndham Destinations acquired the Travel + Leisure brand for $100 million, is now a multi-purpose group with a media arm (Travel + Leisure), membership club, timeshare and new online travel agency in the guise of BookTandL.

It's 20 years on from when Brodsky talked his way into a restaurant manager job in Hawaii for Four Seasons Hotels - the start of a succession of positions at Starwood and then Wyndham Hotel Group.

He even had a short, eight-month stint in 2013 at a then-still fairly new WeWork.

Brodsky's experience, from the operational to the strategic elements of a business, is helping form the new strategy for Travel + Leisure, as he explains when appearing as the latest guest on How I Got Here.

HIGH is a weekly show produced by PhocusWire and Mozio, aimed at getting the inside stories behind startups and innovation in travel and transportation.

It's hosted by PhocusWire's editor in chief, Kevin May, and Mozio co-founder and CEO David Litwak.
