        <itunes:summary>Welcome to Leaders in Travel: Beyond the Business Card. Hosted by Scott Cleaver, we&#39;ll hear from leaders across the Travel Corporation who we think have a great story to tell. We&#39;ll dive deep into their formative years, what drew them to travel, what makes them tick and how they get their inspiration.

Plus, because we&#39;ve seen so many thousands of guests to all parts of the world each year on journeys of exploration and joy, we will ask our leaders about their travel lives - where they&#39;ve been, what they&#39;ve seen and where to next.
