Tara Minson refers to InteleTravel, a host agency supporting over 100,000 travel advisors, as the “Goliath” of the travel industry — and with good reason. Not only does the host agency have the largest network of advisors, but she also credits the company with bringing the most new agents into the profession.
Recently promoted to President of the host agency, Minson has deep roots in the travel industry. Her father, an entrepreneur, founded InteleTravel more than 33 years ago, and for the past 17 years, she’s led many of the company’s marketing, programs and communication initiatives.
In this episode of Humans of Travel, Minson reflects on her childhood, her strong family ties and how travel has shaped her life from an early age. She also shares valuable lessons from her first boss, speaks on the qualities of leaders, and weighs in on the hot topic of new travel advisors entering the industry.
