The new year is a great time to set new goals, whether they're small and personal or big and for a greater good. But setting goals and reaching them can be a daunting and often short-lived task. One person who isn't afraid to set goals (especially high ones) is Mark Tewksbury. This star athlete won the hearts of Canadians with his thrilling gold medal performance in the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. Tewksbury went on to break seven world records during his swimming career and now fights for humanitarian issues and advises companies on Great Traits strategies.
To achieve great heights, Tewksbury had to face his challenges; discipline, sacrifice and intense pressure, head on. Today, he uses his experiences to inspire others to do the same. Tewksbury's presentation on the Great Traits of Champions explores what it means to be a champion from the perspectives of achievers, leaders and legacy leavers today.
"Mark captivates his audiences with his honesty and sincerity. He is adept at drawing parallels between his own goal setting and achievements, and the challenges which constantly face those in the business community. His enthusiasm is contagious and he’s a guaranteed standing ovation."
