John Cychol, FCDME, CTAVice President, Meeting Sales, Fort Worth CVB Fort Worth, Texas
Cychol started his career working for his college fraternity and was ultimately responsible for planning multiple regional conferences and the biennial convention for 600-plus undergraduates and alumni. This led to a 32-year career in hotel sales and destination marketing for Irving, Texas, and now Fort Worth, Texas.
Career Accomplishments
Cychol has served in a variety of positions over the course of his career. Perhaps most interesting was serving as team captain for his fraternity’s national philanthropy project where he and five undergraduate members rolled a beer keg from Los Angeles to New York City, raising funds to support St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and the fight against childhood cancer. At the conclusion of the run, the team was interviewed on ABC’s “Good Morning America.” Over the years, Cychol’s work has focused on destination marketing and leading a successful effort to promote Fort Worth as a unique and genuine meeting and convention destination.
