CNY Conversations Live

May 19, 2016
Stan Linhorst’s weekly panel discussion was held on the stage of the restored Persian Terrace at the Hotel Syracuse. Stan moderated as Ed Riley, owner of the hotel, discussed his motivations, challenges and rewards during the massive restoration. He was joined by Laura Miller, General Manager of Darco and Mark Roberts, co-founder of Staff Leasing. Each talked about how they have taken risks, overcome adversity and risen to leadership positions. The crowd of over 125 was enthusiastic and no doubt looking forward to the hotel’s upcoming grand opening.
