Travel Leaders Network Expands Responsibilities of Management Team

As its membership continues to grow, Travel Leaders Network (TLN) announced new areas of responsibility for its leadership team. Lindsay Pearlman, senior vice president, will now also lead Associate agency members in conjunction with his work with the Affiliate and Associates Acquisition team in the U.S. and Canada. Perry Lungmus, vice president, will assume all duties related to the development and management of TLN’s Alliances.

In 2021, TLN introduced the Leaders Alliance concept to its members at the company's international conference, EDGE. The network launched two initial Alliances in 2022 focused on both Luxury Travel and Host Agencies, with members showing great interest in being part of these groups. Leaders Alliances are designed to bring together a community of like-minded travel advisors and agency owners around specific subjects to share best practices.

In addition to Alliances, Lungmus will oversee the Education Department and the Technology Support team. He will provide consistent management and centralized services for these offerings.

“As we continue to position Travel Leaders Network as the best, most comprehensive consortium for travel agencies, it is important to have our senior leaders in the right place,” said Roger E. Block, president of Travel Leaders Network. “I am very excited for Lindsay and Perry, and I have no doubt they will do great things for our members and our network.”

Pearlman brings a lot of experience to his expanded role, having been president of Ensemble Travel Group and previously heading up American Express’s Canadian Representative Network.

Lungmus grew up in the travel business through his family’s agency, which led him to his current 30-year career of leadership roles with several of the world’s top luxury tour companies and travel agency groups.
