Effective Dec. 31, 2024, 45-year-industry veteran Roger E. Block will serve his last day as president of Travel Leaders Network (TLN) and assume the role of senior advisor of the organization on Jan. 1, 2025.

“The time is simply right for me to start the next phase of my life and pursue some things I’ve wanted to do,” Block said. “I love to spend time traveling, and that will definitely be in my future. I’ll be filling my time with numerous activities in addition to working with the TLN leadership team in an advisory role and helping shape their future success.”

Block has also held leadership positions at Carlson Wagonlit Travel and Travel Agent International, served on advisory boards and chaired the ASTA board of directors.

“Everyone in the travel industry owes a debt of gratitude to Roger,” said Travel Leaders Group President John Lovell. “He cares deeply about travel advisors and developing them as a sales channel. He’s beloved among TLN members and staff, and I am thrilled that he will continue to work in the company and aid in the transition.”
