Sacha Zackariya wrote "Leading Travel & Tourism Retail" to help retailers overcome their most difficult trading period and get them back on track.

Sacha wanted to provide decision-makers with an understanding of new consumer drivers, risks and opportunities post-pandemic, which has also recalibrated personal values and changed the way people travel and shop.

Since publication, this book has been read by retail and travel leaders and academics. Very little is written about this market, and it is the first book to help leaders navigate through both macro and micro issues, including climate change, policy changes and other political and economic factors.

In writing the book, 23,008 surveys, 500 interviews with international tourists, 1,000 articles & academic papers reviewed, and interviews with more than 40 key people, such as politicians, labour unions, and leaders from LVMH, Harrods & Global Blue, showed the significance of this market to the global economy.

Ellen Connelly Taaffe

How is your book helping others?

This book helps professional women feel seen, get unstuck, and courageously move into action. It helps them recognize how they might be holding themselves back with sky-high expectations and ingrained learned messages that no longer serve them, creating a distorted reflection that makes them think they aren't worthy or ready to take the risk whether that is to raise their hand or go for the next promotion. Through stories, research, and prompts, they build self-awareness and begin to take small steps. Readers learn the perils of the five success strategies (preparing to perfection, eagerly pleasing, fitting the mold, working pedal to the metal, and performing patiently awaiting to be noticed) and learn how they can drive performance, get sidelined with potential pitfalls personally or perceptually, and how to pivot into new actions. Readers learn to ask for help, set boundaries, show up more authentically, and ask for what they want. They build courage, community, and confidence.
