ESG PROGRESS AT MARRIOTT INTERNATIONAL → 5 ESEG PROAR TMS ORINOL A Tribute to Arne Sorenson Arne M. Sorenson | 1958–2021 In 2021, Arne Sorenson tragically passed away at the age of 62 from pancreatic cancer. Arne’s passing was a tremendous loss. From 2012-2021, Arne served as President and Chief Executive Officer of Marriott International – becoming the first person outside of the Marriott family to lead the company. During Arne’s tenure, Marriott grew to be the largest hospitality company in the world. But for those who knew him, what was even more remarkable was quite simply what a wonderful human being Arne was. Arne’s presence continues to be felt across Marriott, and our Serve 360 platform is a direct reflection of the culture that he advanced during his tenure as Chief Executive Officer. Arne’s personal passion for protecting the environment, promoting inclusion, and advocating for human rights created the imprints for all the stories and strategies that you will learn about in this Report. While Arne is no longer with us, he will not be forgotten. Our deep bench of leaders is equally committed to these important initiatives and continued progress. We are proud to pay tribute to Arne as we continue to advance the Serve 360 platform in the years to come. Following Arne’s passing, The J. Willard and Alice S. Marriott Foundation announced the creation of the Marriott-Sorenson Center for Hospitality Leadership at Howard University – one of the nation’s leading historically Black colleges and universities located in the city of Marriott’s founding. To support the Center, Marriott has created the Arne M. Sorenson Hospitality Fund, which will be dedicated to helping build diverse leadership talent in the industry Arne loved. We can think of no better way to honor Arne’s legacy.
