Since joining Four Seasons in 2000, Minnesota native Mali Carow has garnered international expertise in both the Asia Pacific and Europe, Middle East, Africa regions before returning home to the Americas where she most recently led the opening of Four Seasons Hotel New Orleans during her first term as General Manager.

“I wouldn’t be where I am today without the support and guidance of confident, empathetic women who helped me along the way. Now, I am fortunate to be in a position where I can pay it forward by mentoring other women in emerging leadership positions, sharing the lessons I have learned, and helping to shape the future of the industry,” says Mali regarding her career with Four Seasons.

With a robust roster of award-winning Four Seasons properties, Mali boasts hotelier experience from Four Seasons Chicago, Washington DC, Four Seasons Hotel Amman, Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru, and Four Seasons Hotel London at Park Lane, where she celebrated the Forbes 5-star hotel’s 50th anniversary as Hotel Manager before returning state-side to New Orleans.

Now arriving to one of the world’s top yachting locales, Mali is thrilled to be back by the ocean, contributing to the ongoing growth and success of the team at Four Seasons Hotel and Residences Fort Lauderdale, owning the distinction of being the city’s first and only Five Diamond hotel. With a husband who is an avid diver, and a young son who loves the beach, the family is enjoying everything this next-generational city has to offer.
