Peter Vidmar
is the highest scoring American gymnast in Olympic history.
The winner of numerous national and international titles, Peter
finished his successful career at the 1984 Olympic Games. As the
USA men's gymnastics team captain, he led his teammates to America's
first team gold medal with their stunning upset victory over the
defending world champions, the People's Republic of China. He
went on to win the silver medal in the individual all-around competition
(the only American to have ever won an Olympic All-Around medal),
and with a perfect score of 10, he captured the gold medal on
the pommel horse. Peter continues to contribute to the Olympic
movement today. He serves as the Co-Chairman of the US Olympic
Committee Summer Sports Summit, an annual series of workshops
designed to prepare America's medal hopefuls to win Gold in future
Olympics. Peter has worked for many years as the gymnastics commentator
for CBS Sports and ESPN and continues to work as a journalist
or broadcaster at each summer Olympics. Peter has served on the
President's Council on Physical Fitness & Sports, the Executive
Board of the United States Olympic Committee, and the Executive
Committee of USA Gymnastics.
Peter is now a powerful and entertaining
speaker at corporate meetings and trade shows. With 2 decades
of experience helping people throughout the country to realize
their own potential, Peter does much more than just speak about
his experiences. In his inspiring, humorous, and entertaining
presentations, he also performs portions of his Olympic routine
on the pommel horse to drive home his message. He demonstrates
the three components of a perfect score in gymnastics - Risk,
Originality and Virtuosity (ROV) - and discusses how they apply
to success in business and in life. His message brings something
unique and refreshing to the corporate arena.
