His swashbuckling demonstrations on the podium, illustrating the powerful story of how he made it to Beijing – taking the long way around – will bring visual excitement and a memorable message to your next meeting.
Tim speaks to Fortune 100 and 500 companies, meetings and gatherings of small and medium sized businesses, professional associations, and non-profit groups, bringing his competitive fire to his presentations on teamwork, goal setting, and focus. Tim is all about finding the way to achieve the success you haven't let yourself believe you can attain. He went the long way round to become an Olympic medalist, fighting his way to victory when no one thought he could do it.
A leading star behind the rapid growth of the sport of fencing, Tim Morehouse has broken the mold for the profile and possibilities for emerging-sport Olympic athletes. He has appeared on the Today Show, Oprah, The Tonight Show, and Happy Hour on Fox Business. He has been the subject of a television documentary, featured in Esquire, and appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and Contributing Editor. Tim has made presentations to audiences across America, including General Electric and Google. He is also a regular on the red carpets of New York City.
Tim understands the power of teamwork. It took all four members of the US Saber team to win the medal in Beijing, each playing at the top of his game and each understanding the overall strategy and executing it with brilliance. After narrowly missing out on a podium finish in Athens 2004, the group made a commitment to themselves that they were going to win a medal in Beijing. And they did it – shocking the world by upsetting Hungary and Russia to capture the first medal for US men's fencing in over twenty years.
