Jasey Jay Anderson

I was at one of my customer’s management meetings in Montreal and the motivational speaker was Jasey Jay Anderson who won a gold medal for snowboarding at the 2010 winter Olympics in Vancouver. Having retired from snowboarding he is embarking on a career as a public speaker. It was very interesting to hear about the career of an athlete and what motivates them. After the talk I got a chance to ask him something that I have always wondered about. What was “the moment” for him, when he crossed the line and realised he had won or when he was on the podium collecting the medal. As It turned out I seem to have been the first one to ask the question after some thought he told me it was crossing the line.
