ITG inaugural advisory panel meets with management
By admin


Independent Travel Group’s inaugural advisory panel met with ITG management in Melbourne recently.

The panel is a representative body of ITG members from around Australia with nominating members serving two-year terms on a rotational basis.

ITG’s executive general manager Ari Magoutis said the meeting was an important additional step in ITG’s engagement with members.

“Although we encourage open communication with our members every time and anytime at all levels, the ITG Advisory Panel is a meaningful and effective way to work on current and strategic issues relevant to members,” he said.

“We have always stuck by our ‘talk to us’ ethos and this is very much a formalised way of member engagement”.
