Michael G. Tompkins Joins Hutchinson Consulting

Sonoma, California-based Hutchinson Consulting has announced that Michael G. Tompkins has joined its recruiting team. For more than 20 years, Tompkins has led teams in the luxury hospitality, wellness and spa industries, and also serves as chairman of the International Spa Association (ISPA). As a former CEO of Miraval Resorts, Hilton Head Health and PALM Health, vice president of hotels & spa at Turning Stone Casino and an executive with Canyon Ranch Health Resorts, Tompkins boasts a diverse background and an ability to create global brand leading teams in the three converging market segments.

Tompkins served with Lori Hutchinson, cofounder of Hutchinson Consulting, on the ISPA board of directors and collaborated with her on staffing assignments for Miraval Resorts. “That personal connection with Lori makes this new development a natural and happy one for us, and especially because Michael is one of the few people whose reach and connections in the worlds of spa, hospitality and wellness rival hers,” explains cofounder Bill Hutchinson. “Michael will be an extraordinary executive recruiter. He has deep experience and understanding of operations, sales and marketing, food and beverage and—most importantly—finding excellent managers for challenging positions.”
