Marc Magliacano, OneSpaWorld Board member and Managing Partner of L Catterton, commented: “Today marks the completion of the CEO transition we announced last September, and I want to personally thank Glenn for his significant contributions over the past 20 years at OneSpaWorld. We are delighted to have Leonard reassume the position of Chief Executive Officer, a role he held with the Company for 17 years. We believe that Leonard’s continuing leadership as Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, combined with the talents of our expansive management team that now includes Susan Bonner as Chief Commercial officer, positions the Company to maximize the power of its vast operating platform and leadership position in the operation of health and wellness centers on board cruise ships, to take OneSpaWorld to new heights as operations resume.”
Leonard Fluxman, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented: “Glenn is a long-time partner and I am grateful for his expertise and contributions to the success of our Company. I will miss working alongside him and look forward to benefiting from his insights as a member of the Board.”

Together we have achieved and exceeded many goals, including securing more than 90% market share in the operation of health and wellness centers on board cruise ships by delivering exceptional performance and innovation in service for our cruise line and destination resort partners and their customers. I leave with tremendous satisfaction in all that we have accomplished and I am pleased to be able to continue to contribute as a member of the Board of Directors. I remain confident that the best years lie ahead for OneSpaWorld.”
