Bruce Jenner
1976 Olympic Gold Medalist for the Decathalon
Earning the Title as the "World's Greatest Athlete"
Keynote Speaker: November 10, 2008

Bruce Jenner is best known for breaking the world record in the 1976 Olympic decathlon in Montreal, earning him a gold medal and the title, “World’s Greatest Athlete.” Following his record breaking achievement, Jenner was handed an American flag from a fan in the audience and spontaneously ran a victory lap around the field, a gesture that has since been emulated by athletes from countries around the world.

In the years since his Olympic success, Bruce has become highly involved in several non-profit organizations such as the National Dyslexia Research Foundation and the Special Olympics, where he serves on the Council of Champions. Bruce is known to millions as an inspiring motivational speaker, and is able to draw from his personal success as an Olympic athlete to share his message “Finding the Champion Within” which is relevant to both student athletes as well as corporate executives.

In his spare time, Bruce enjoys flying his plane, improving his golf game, and spending time with his wife Kris and their six children Kourtney, Kimberly, Khloe, Robert, Kendall and Kylie.
