EIC Inducts Two Helmsmen from Huntington Place to Hall of Leaders

10/12/2022
On Oct. 10 the Events Industry Council (EIC) inducted two of Huntington Place’s executive leaders to its prestigious EIC Hall of Leaders to celebrate their lifetimes of outstanding achievement in undoubtedly shaping the events industry, recognizing that the industry would not be what it is today without their contributions.

“All [of the nominations] show remarkable personal accomplishments and achievements on behalf of our industry,” said Amy Calvert, CEO of the EIC. “Recognizing, rewarding and celebrating the incredible leadership and innovation in our sector is one of the personal highlights of my year and also for the EIC, and I offer my warmest congratulations to each of our recipients and inductees into our esteemed Hall of Leaders.”

The six Hall of Leaders inductees for 2022 join 143 previous recipients, and each has had a significant legacy impact on the global business events sector.

“I’ve been so honored to learn from two outstanding leaders in our industry,” said Karen Totaro, general manager Huntington Place/ASM Global. “I consider both mentors and friends and could not wait to stand and cheer for them on the 10th!”

Bob McClintock, executive vice president, convention centers of ASM Global, has guided the operations management of Huntington Place through three general managers for more than a decade. ASM Global won the original bid for the daily operations management of Huntington Place in 2010 when McClintock began building and shaping the operations team to become one of the best in the business. Huntington Place is the 16th largest convention center in the United States and one of the five largest convention centers in the ASM Global portfolio of more than 300 venues worldwide.

McClintock was nominated by International Association of Venue Managers (IAVM) Director of Education Greg Wolfe, who received the good news from EIC‘s Calvert that McClintock would be inducted into the Hall of Leaders.

“It brings me great joy to announce that Mr. Bob McClintock, executive vice president, ASM Global was selected to be inducted into EIC’s Hall of Leaders,” Calvert said. “The Events Industry Council is thrilled to present Mr. McClintock with this special honor – a true testament to his lifetime achievements and the meaningful work endeavored to support and to lift up this industry and its workforce. Mr. McClintock will be rightly placed among a distinctive group of individuals distinguished by leadership, legacy impact, innovation, perseverance, and vision.”
