Lindsey Sinclair, Big Picture Brainstormer, Passionate Problem-Solver, and Natural Connector

Send us Fan MailLindsey Sinclair is an active listener, big picture brainstormer, passionate problem solver, energetic educator, and – yes – a natural connector. Lindsey happily puts all these skills – and her ability to show up authentically – to her work as the Business Development Manager at Tourism Canmore Kananaskis.Her background in events began over a decade ago from coordinating festivals to then working as a supplier in a Destination Management Company (DMC), to diving into the Destination Management Organization (DMO) world where she now is a resource for planners who look to host their events in Canmore and Kananaskis.Like many people emerging from lockdowns in the travel, tourism, and “events world” – Lindsey and I reconnected with a renewed enthusiasm and curiosity to explore what could be next for connectors like us! On October 22-23 I hosted Candy’s first 2-day, deep-dive retreat for everyday event planners – The Ultimate Event Experience in Banff, Alberta, Canada.  The room was filled with comfy chairs, coffees in hand, and concentrated conversation about how to create alignment between who we truly are and how we show up to the world around us. We then applied that learning a to find alignment between the purpose of our events and how we could share that purpose with others.  Lindsey agreed to jump in to not only learn with the small group of seven in-house and do-it-yourself event planners over the two days, but also showed up to offer feedback in our “Purpose Presentation” portion of the weekend. In our conversation today Lindsey unpacks some insight she received from her time at The Ultimate, and shares her thoughts on shifting from being approval-driven to living authentically!
