With extensive experience as a senior executive, consultant, trainer and business coach, Leslie understands the true challenges that leaders and organizations face from many perspectives. Her passion for understanding and communicating the social impact and responsibility of our human interactions and interconnectedness has resulted in the creation of effective transformational programs and strategies that have been implemented across cultural and ethnic boundaries, producing extraordinary results in individuals and organizations for over 30 years.
Using unique transformational models and ways of thinking, Leslie partners with clients in building a strong organizational culture that delivers unprecedented bottom-line results. Leslie has a unique and effective way of bringing people together – from the boardroom to the factory floor – to unite all stakeholders around a shared vision and common commitments.

Leslie Tucker defines culture change as successful only if it is sustainable. To this end she developed “Train the Trainer” programs -- programs that certify internal coaches who transfer Leslie’s knowledge into applicable, sustainable working practices throughout each organization and into the future.
Ms. Tucker has also worked extensively in the government and non-profit sectors. Working on behalf of the Institute for Sustainable Communities, she has trained leaders of NGOs in Ukraine, China, Macedonia, Georgia and the United States to build internal and external relationships based in partnership. Her work in Moldova with the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC); an innovative and independent U.S. foreign aid agency leading the fight against global poverty, helped create a powerful vision between the U.S. agency and local foreign teams.
Leslie holds a Bachelors degree in psychology from Burlington College, and has studied systems thinking, organizational dynamics and customer service. She consults internationally in English and her work has been translated in Russian, Mandarin, Spanish and French.
