OHLA's Stars of the Industry Awards provides recognition to your employees - an important part of validating, thanking, encouraging and retaining your best performers and boosting morale within your staff. Completing this nomination will automatically recognize your candidates as nominees, making them eligible for local, statewide and even national recognition. Recognition helps improve team culture, increase performance and even reduce turnover.

OHLA awards include a luncheon event recognizing all nominees and local winners in Greater Cincinnati, Greater Cleveland, Greater Columbus and Greater Dayton Lodging Councils, and the winners of those councils and the rest of the state at the statewide awards at the OHLA Annual Conference in November. Statewide winners are eligible for national recognition.

The 2022 Stars of the Industry Awards are presented by Upshift.
