Lindsay Alcock Facing Life Head On Achieving Peak Performance in the Workplace

Biography

She speeds down an icy track at 120 km/h on her stomach, head-first with a steel sled holding her inches off the ice. Her sport is called Skeleton and it was reintroduced at the 2002 Olympic Winter Games in Salt Lake City, Utah. Lindsay started the sport in 1998 and in 2004 she has become the overall World Cup Champion and Silver medallist at the prestigious World Skeleton Championships. In just three years, she has accumulated six World Cup Gold medals and several international push and track records. Lindsay finished a strong 6th place in the 2002 Olympics and has her sights set on achieving Gold in Turin, Italy 2006 and Vancouver, Canada 2010.

From competitive sport, Lindsay has learned valuable life lessons that can be related to the business world to help employees reach their peak performance. Her honest perspective on how to achieve success in elite sport and in life has touched and inspired many individuals within the Calgary corporate community (oil companies, brokerage houses and banking institutions). Her enthusiastic and heartfelt speeches have been well received and she is often highly recommended for guest speaker requests at team building seminars, company retreats, banquets, and community events.

Lindsay holds a Bachelor of Kinesiology degree from University of Calgary and is currently working as a Public Relations Representative for ARC Resources Ltd., an Energy Trust company based in Calgary.
