Bio
Anna Leask
I've had the pleasure of working with Lesley in our role as judges for the ASVA Marketing Awards for the past few years. Lesley is great to work with - always prepared, considered and refreshingly optimistic. Her broad experience in tourism, marketing and social media is evident in her profile and enables her to apply her knowledge in both individual business and destination-wide situations. One of Lesley's key strengths is her ability to work through an agenda in an efficient manner, whilst engaging everyone in the process, resulting in clear decisions and action plans. I highly recommend Lesley as a colleague with whom I would happily work with in the future.
Susan Russell
I've known Lesley for a number of years and have worked with her on a range of projects. Working across Scotland's tourism sector she brings expertise and professionalism to all the projects she works on. As a core member of the Women In Tourism (WIT) Board, Lesley leads on our Communications strategy and working group and her passion and drive for the work of WIT is unwavering. As a specialist in digital tourism, Lesley has been a driving force behind the emergence and development of #ScotlandHour and Edinburgh's Chapter of the global Travel Massive network. She has a fantastic network of contacts and is always the first to offer support and guidance to any new or existing project.
