Michelle Fee, CEO and founder of Cruise Planners, an American Express Travel Representative, was recognized as a distinguished CEO by the South Florida Business & Wealth (SFBW) at their annual Apogee Awards.

The Apogee Awards honors C-suite executives for their dedication to their industry, along with leadership, innovation, ability to overcome obstacles and their impact on the community. Honorees are selected from South Florida’s tri-county area.

“As the only female CEO honored in the Hospitality category, it is a pleasure to be an Apogee Award honoree,” says Fee. “Cruise Planners is such an amazing franchise because we have the best travel advisors in the industry. I am proud that we have created a company where entrepreneurs are able to run their own businesses and create their own wealth.”

Fee, a native Floridian, founded Cruise Planners 25 years ago in Coral Springs, Florida and reimagined the travel world.

The company has evolved to sell all types of travel from all-inclusive resort vacations, guided land tours and cruises.

Cements Position as Industry Leader

The Apogee Awards comes hot on the heels of Fee highlighted as one of the most influential executives in the 2019 Florida Trend’s Florida 500 List for the second year in a row. The power list recognizes Florida’s most prestigious business leaders who are movers and shakers within their community and beyond.

Furthermore, the company positively contributes to Broward County and Greater Fort Lauderdale’s tourism engine helping bring in the more than four million cruisers sailing from Port Everglades each year. Cruise Planners employs 135 employees and has consistently been voted “Top Workplaces in South Florida” by the Sun Sentinel with jobs in technology, marketing, sales and business development all within the hospitality industry.

Community Involvement

Fee is actively involved in CP Cares™ – Cruise Planners’ non-profit organization supporting local, national and international charities and other noble causes and through various fundraising efforts has raised more than $2 million. Cruise Planners champions the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s goal of a world without blood cancer where Fee was named the Woman of the Year by the South Florida Chapter after raising a record-breaking $292,000 for cancer research. She maintains a commitment to helping the community while positively impacting people’s lives and inspiring Cruisitude® – the company’s coined term describing a positive state of mind combined with a passion for travel.

“I’m beyond proud of my BFF Michelle and her success and feel incredibly lucky to be on this incredible journey alongside her every day,” says Vicky Garcia, Cruise Planners’ COO and Fee’s business partner as co-owner. “She’s an inspiration to so many and continues shaking things up to challenge the status quo, which makes our team rise above to drive the unstoppable innovation at Cruise Planners.”

Philanthropy and Fundraising of North America launches breakthrough seminar and training program for nonprofit executives


Philanthropy and Fundraising of North America

Philanthropy and Fundraising of North America

The launch of PFNA is supported by six years of worldwide research conducted to identify key behaviors nonprofits can adopt to dramatically increase fundraising income and supporter engagement to multiply societal impact.

Recognizing a void in the fundraising industry, five nonprofit thought-leaders announce the formation of Philanthropy and Fundraising of North America, a transformational growth program designed for nonprofit executives.

Founded by Adrian Sargeant, Tina Hudgins, Kyla Shawyer, Geoff Peters and Alan Clayton, PFNA is focused on creating donor/supporter-centric philanthropic cultures while unifying the visions and structures of nonprofits to build success.

“As we work to identify and bring together the world’s leading nonprofits and changemakers to share and learn from each other, I see this as one of the important steps in helping to affect a much-needed mindset shift that will ignite transformational change across the social good ecosystem,” said Shawyer.

The launch of PFNA is supported by six years of worldwide research conducted by Sargeant and Clayton to identify key behaviors nonprofits can adopt to dramatically increase fundraising income and supporter engagement to multiply societal impact.

“We found the missions of our principal directors were uniquely aligned. We all want to change the way that philanthropy is experienced around the world and to make that experience more personally meaningful and fulfilling for the donors who offer it,” Sargeant said. “PFNA gives us the opportunity to take new science findings and plug them directly into the cutting-edge of professional practice to make that change a reality.”

“Having worked with a few leading nonprofit organizations to achieve transformative growth (e.g. doubling net revenue five years in a row), I was fascinated by Professor Sargeant’s ability to provide a construct for others to follow if they wanted to experience similar growth,” said Peters.

“We decided that working together, our experiences would provide strong case histories and understanding of how to help nonprofits in North America match their mission goals with the fundraising that enables them to achieve great things,” Clayton added.

The organization will guide and support nonprofits in achieving transformational growth through five channels:


  • A proprietary seminar program featuring interactive design techniques to teach both knowledge and behavioral design;
  • Targeted research and organizational capacity-building services;
  • Consulting services designed to ensure the organization finds and maintains focus and energy, and has the structures, plans and behavioral systems in place to maximize fundraising growth surge and sustain momentum;
  • A first-of-its-kind co-creative service that partners professional, nonprofit-creative teams with internal staff teams to develop propositions, brands, campaigns and appeals to ensure measurable results;
  • The world’s only Neuro-Fundraising Lab which uses the latest technology to test creative appeals with prospective donors to guide campaign decisions and predict successful results.

“Working with Alan and Adrian as a client was transformational,” said Hudgins, who previously served as director of fundraising and marketing at International Justice Mission. “By immediately applying lessons from their research and experience, our supporter sustainer program grew by more than 250%. Our teams became skilled, emotive storytellers and our increased focus on supporter experience led to greater retention and overall growth. Bringing this knowledge to more mission-based organizations will create greater revenue to transform programs.”

The first two-day Great Fundraising Masterclass seminar will debut in Washington D.C. on January 27 and 28. To reserve your space, please pre-register at philanthropyfundraising.com.

PFNA is based in Washington, D.C. and offers services to nonprofits throughout North America. Learn more at philanthropyfundraising.com.

In that role, he was responsible for strategic planning, sales growth, and problem resolution. Dan co-developed and helped to successfully execute on Accuvant’s initial vision – to build a company with the breadth, depth, and capabilities to address the information security needs of organizations worldwide – up until the merger with FishNet Security.

Matthew is the CEO of NTT Security, formerly known as Dimension Data’s Security Business Unit. Matthew is responsible for executing the organization’s security strategy, services and go-to-market strategy with the goal of building the world’s most recognized security brand supported by a team of highly talented security professionals. Matthew previously held the position of Group Executive of Security for Dimension Data. He held several roles during his tenure with Dimension Data. Prior to this, Matthew spent time in various security environments, from a client to a carrier to OEMs across Australia, Asia, and now global positions.

Andrew is the CEO of Kudelski Security, an independent Swiss provider of tailored cyber security solutions to enterprises and public sector institutions, with its U.S. headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona. Andrew has led the company’s technical strategy, product development, engineering and research, notably the launch of the IoT Security Center of Excellence, the delivery of Secure Blueprint, and the Blockchain Security Center. Previously, Andrew led an R&D laboratory focused on national defense challenges for the Georgia Tech Research Institute.

“Morgan’s corporate development experience and Jason’s product and technical vision will be immensely valuable for NightDragon companies.
