As a regular on the international speaking circuit, Derek Redmond is used to flying off to locations throughout Europe to deliver his inspirational message to business audiences. What he didn’t bank on, during his recent visit to deliver a presentation for Procter & Gamble in Geneva, was two very special guests appearing from the audience at the last moment. P&G, who have just become the 11th global sponsors of the 2012 Olympics, chose Derek as the ideal person to speak at their management event. They are also, however, a highly family-orientated organisation, so who could be a better choice as Derek’s unexpected co-stars than his parents? Jim and Jenny Redmond, who have supported him completely throughout his athletics career, were secretly flown out to Switzerland by Derek's agent to surprise Derek, making for a touching and emotional finale to his talk.
