“Having worked with Lesley on a number of key tourism projects, I can safely say that she is one of the most conscientious, results driven tourism professionals I’ve had the pleasure to collaborate with. Lesley instantly “gets it” and sees not only the strategic picture but also the practical elements of each project. She applies a logical approach and will only ever deliver the highest quality input. Her appreciation of both large and small business issues and the positive impact that great marketing can have is an invaluable attribute. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working on projects with her.”
