Bio
Vickie Lincks
I have had the opportunity to work for Misty as she tackled unique leadership roles. She is a thoughtful and deliberate leader, always moving forward with passion and integrity. She is not swayed by the noise that often enters the decision-making process but has a unique ability to pull together disparate voices and opinions but remain true to long-term goals. She is an excellent manager of staff, combining strong leadership with warmth and kindness. Misty is a perfect example of servant leadership. I always welcome the opportuntiy to work with her.

I worked with Misty when she was at the French Lick West Baden CVB and they were undertaking a rebrand of the destination and later when she became the Executive Director. Misty is a thoughtful, consummate leader and brought great insight to the branding process. She worked well with local hospitality leadership and was dedicated to her craft. She is personable, knowledgeable, hard working and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. I hope she returns to the DMO world someday!
