The wisest lessons half a century in pulses can teach you

Great to meet you Leslie, congratulations on 50 years in the industry! Tell us, what first got you into pulses? 

After graduating high school, I simply applied for a job – I didn’t have much direction. Back in the seventies, it was a challenging time to find work, and, honestly, at the time I had no idea what the company even did! When I arrived I started as an assistant to the export manager, which meant preparing export documents and typing all day, initially on a manual typewriter and later on an electric one. It was repetitive work, but it gave me my first glimpse into international trade.
