德勤19人组成第一支全球德勤团出战巴黎奥运会

2023年7月24日，全球奥林匹克和残奥会合作伙伴德勤宣布成立有史以来第一支全球德勤团。 该团队由19名德勤专业人士组成 ，他们也是为获得2024年巴黎奥运会和残奥会参赛资格而进行训练的精英运动员。这个运动员名单上还有一小部分德勤赞助的运动员。

2024年巴黎奥运会:德勤团队介绍

从打破世界纪录的残奥会金牌得主，到参加奥运会最新项目之一——霹雳舞的奥运选手，德勤团队的每一位成员都体现了德勤的共同价值观，并将通过体育创造一个更美好的世界

这些双职业运动员代表14个国家参加15项不同的运动。团队中的德勤专业人员在德勤的每项业务中都以全职或兼职的身份工作。

能成为德勤团队的一员，我感到非常荣幸。在过去的18年里，我一直在德勤工作，我也能够追逐我的残奥会体育梦想。当宣布与国际奥委会/国际残奥委会合作时，我非常兴奋。我迫不及待地想看到奥运会和残奥会呈现出的指数级可能性，以及我们通过体育让世界变得更美好的影响!——Pieter du Preez，南非残疾人田径和残疾人自行车运动员(2012年伦敦残奥会、2020年东京残奥会金牌得主、2024年巴黎残奥会有望得主)，德勤南非经理。

“我一直认为Breaking和Deloitte是两个完全不同的世界，我必须选择其中一个才能脱颖而出。我几乎考虑过放弃奥运会的梦想，但还是决定向德勤寻求潜在的支持。现在有了德勤的支持，我可以在追求工作之外的梦想的同时，继续推进自己的事业。德勤和Breaking有很多协同效应，我在专业领域学到的技能也适用于Breaking。两者都需要同样的卓越、毅力、奉献和激情。”——Tiffany Leung，Breaking，德勤加拿大高级顾问。

“我很高兴德勤支持我的体育抱负，同时也帮助我在职业生涯中成长。我期待着作为一名运动员和一名德勤专业人士，为2024年巴黎奥运会而努力。——Abe Wiersma，赛艇运动员，荷兰(2020年东京奥运会金牌得主，2024年巴黎奥运会有望得主)，德勤荷兰顾问。

全部参赛人员名单

安永4名员工参加巴黎奥运会

安永澳大利亚准备为4位参加巴黎奥运会的同事加油， 他们是安永内部精英运动员计划的受益者。

4位运动员分别是：两届奥运会游泳金牌得主Bronte Campbell、赛艇组合Jessica Morrison和Olympia Aldersey、奥运会和残奥会乒乓球运动员Melissa Tapper。

Morrison 现在是EY-Parthenon交易策略和执行团队的经理，他于2018年首次加入安永，担任人事咨询顾问 。她刚刚从墨尔本商学院获得MBA学位，并在2019年世界赛艇锦标赛上获得两枚银牌。今年，她将与Annabelle McIntyre一起参加女子双人比赛。

Morrison 将与世界冠军队友兼同事Olympia Aldersey一起乘坐飞往巴黎的飞机。 Olympia Aldessey自2021年以来一直是安永的业务转型顾问 ，此前她获得了阿德莱德大学的法律和健康科学双学位。Aldersey希望在女子四人组中为澳大利亚队带回金牌。

如果她们成功了，这将是现在被称为“罗塞拉斯”的女子代表团获得的第四枚奥运金牌(1984年首次参赛)。注：Kate slater在亚特兰大担任安永会计师期间赢得了该团队的首枚金牌，而里约奥运会的英雄Kim Brennan在奥运会后加入了安永，现在是堪培拉的合伙人。

安永的女运动员商业网络成立于2013年，旨在支持女运动员利用她们在竞技生涯中发展起来的技能，过渡到体育后的职业舞台，Brennan在安永当地体育就业计划的建立中发挥了重要作用，该计划为现役运动员提供灵活的工作安排。

安永墨尔本的兼职顾问Melissa Tapper就是参加计划其中之一，她参加巴黎奥运会和残奥会的乒乓球比赛，成为2016年第一位获得两项殊荣的澳大利亚人。“Milly”右臂患有臂丛神经麻痹，她将作为澳大利亚六人奥运代表队的一员开始她的海外征战。

“我简直不敢相信，”Tapper说。“我小时候的目标是获得参加奥运会的资格，现在我正朝着第三届奥运会前进!”每次踏上球场，我都想打出最好的乒乓球，但如果我能激励一个年轻女孩积极参与体育运动，或者激励一个残疾儿童相信他们可以实现自己的梦想，那才是真正的成就。”

原英文报道如下：

New York, NY 24 JULY 2023 — Today Deloitte, a Worldwide Olympic and Paralympic Partner, announced the first-ever global Team Deloitte, a group of 19 Deloitte professionals who are also elite athletes training to qualify for the Olympic and Paralympic Games Paris 2024. This athlete roster is joined by a small cohort of Deloitte-sponsored athletes.

As we look toward Paris 2024, we’re thrilled to introduce Team Deloitte, an extraordinary group of dual-career Deloitte professionals and elite athletes who exemplify the unique qualities required to succeed in both sport and business. We are excited to support and celebrate their journey to qualify for Paris 2024

says Joe Ucuzoglu, Deloitte Global CEO

Paris 2024: Introducing Team Deloitte

From gold medalist Paralympians who have broken world records, to an Olympic hopeful in one of the Games’ newest sports, breaking, each member of Team Deloitte embodies Deloitte’s shared values and will be part of creating a better world through sport

These dual career athletes represent 14 countries in 15 different sports. The Deloitte professionals within the team work in a full or part time capacity across each of our businesses at Deloitte. To view the full list of Team Deloitte members and their biographies, please click here.

It’s a huge honor to be part of Team Deloitte. Over the last 18 years while I’ve been working at Deloitte, I’ve also been able to chase my Paralympic sporting dreams. I got extremely excited when the partnership with the IOC/IPC was announced. I can't wait to see the exponential possibilities unfold to transform the Olympic and Paralympic Games and the impact we will have as we change the world for the better through sport!” – Pieter du Preez, Para athletics and Para cycling, South Africa (London 2012 Paralympic Games, Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games gold medalist, Paris 2024 hopeful) and Manager, Deloitte South Africa

“I always thought that Breaking and Deloitte were two completely different worlds, and that I would have to choose one to excel and advance in. I almost considered giving up my Olympic ambitions but decided to reach out to Deloitte for potential support. Now with Deloitte’s support, I can continue to advance my career while pursuing my dreams outside of work. Deloitte and Breaking share a lot of synergies and the skills that I learned in the professional world are transferrable to Breaking. They both require the same level of excellence, perseverance, dedication, and passion." – Tiffany Leung, Breaking (Paris 2024 hopeful) and Senior Consultant, Deloitte Canada

“I am very happy with the fact that Deloitte supports my athletic ambitions while also helping me grow in my career. I look forward to pushing towards Paris 2024 as an athlete and beyond as a Deloitte professional.” – Abe Wiersma, Rowing, Netherlands (Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 gold medalist, Paris 2024 hopeful) and Consultant, Deloitte Netherlands

Thriving in and outside of competition

Deloitte has a history of attracting and supporting elite athletes. Within the organization today, thirty-seven Deloitte professionals have participated in a combined seven summer and three winter editions of the Olympic and Paralympic Games, from Atlanta 1996 to Tokyo 2020. Their efforts span over 30 years of competition at Olympic and Paralympic Games, representing 15 countries in 21 different sports, and have resulted in 16 medals: ten gold, four silver, and two bronze.

Many retired Olympians and Paralympians have come to Deloitte for their post-competitive careers and are using the qualities and skills it takes to be an elite athlete performing at the highest levels to thrive at Deloitte.

“For most of our lives, we have been the exception to the norm. We were the strongest, fastest, most resilient, and most creative – this is what it takes to be an Olympian. I chose Deloitte because I can continue to apply these skills to the pursuit of world class performances while surrounding myself with professionals who also have been the exception and are willing to challenge the status quo.” – Noemie Thomas, Swimming, Canada (Olympic Games Rio 2016) and Business Transformation Senior Consultant, Deloitte Canada

“After retiring from elite gymnastics at 19, I believed that I’d be starting from scratch in the professional world. Little did I know the skills I’d acquired during my sporting career would not only be transferrable, but also essential to the success of my professional career. At Deloitte, the resilience to thrive in high-stakes situations, the courage to not be afraid to make mistakes, and the discipline to give 100% even on challenging days, are just a few of the qualities that not only made me an Olympian, but also are now helping me succeed in my career.” – Rebecca Wing, Artistic Gymnastics, Great Britain (Olympic Games Beijing 2008) and Global Sponsorships Project Manager, Deloitte Global

"A relentless drive for excellence, a commitment to continuous improvement, and the discipline to push through challenges and setbacks are the hallmarks of elite athletes and Deloitte professionals. These common features are why I feel like I have found a home at Deloitte." - Maxwell Lattimer, Rowing, Canada (Olympic Games Rio 2016, Olympic Games Tokyo 2020) and Organization Design Consultant, Deloitte Canada

A Partnership with Purpose

Today’s announcement of Team Deloitte builds upon the April 2022 news that the IOC and Deloitte have entered into a decade-long, five-Games TOP partnership through 2032. Deloitte and the IOC have formed a “partnership with purpose” that applies Deloitte’s deep business acumen to help the IOC realize the possibilities of the Olympic Agenda 2020+5 and its mission: creating a better world through sport.

“From three 4-time Olympian and Paralympian athletes to an Olympian who has participated in both winter and summer editions of the Olympic Games, our retired athletes and Team Deloitte epitomize the values of the Olympic and Paralympic Movement,” says Michele Parmelee, IOC Partnership & Purpose Leader, Deloitte Global. “The experience, work ethic, and resilience of these world class athletes—and professionals—is an inspiration. I am incredibly proud that so many of these talented people choose Deloitte to expand their already impressive careers and I’m excited for our people to celebrate the Team Deloitte athletes.”

Athlete support and well-being

Last year, Deloitte worked alongside the IOC to launch its Athlete365 Mentoring program, which seeks to support a cohort of Olympian and Paralympian mentees in their career transitions from elite sport. Eleven retired Olympians and Paralympians at Deloitte are participating in this program and are looking forward to sharing their own experiences and giving back to the athlete community and the Olympic and Paralympic Movement.

“It’s inspiring to think about the many ways this partnership can create better futures for athletes,” says John Skowron, Global Lead Client Service Partner – IOC, Deloitte US. “In addition to improving opportunities to transition beyond the field of play, Deloitte will use its digital expertise to advise in such areas as personalizing the fan experience and enhancing digital services to create a more digitally connected, inclusive experience for the athletes and fans around the world.”

The Australian branch of professional services firm Ernst & Young is getting set to cheer on a quartet of Paris-bound colleagues – beneficiaries of the firm’s internal elite athletes program.

Dual Olympic gold-medal winning swimmer Bronte Campbell, rowing pair Jessica Morrison and Olympia Aldersey, and Olympic and Paralympic table tennis player Melissa Tapper have all developed their skills at the Big Four firm.

Remarkably, EY’s Australian branch will supply four of the global Big Four firm’s ten athletes competing at this year’s Games in Paris, with Morrison looking to follow up on her gold medal triumph in the coxless four in Tokyo.

Now a manager in EY-Parthenon’s transaction strategy & execution team out of Sydney, Morrison first joined the firm as a people advisory consultant in 2018, fresh off an MBA with Melbourne Business School and ahead of claiming two silver medals at the 2019 World Rowing Championships. She will compete this year in the women’s pair alongside Annabelle McIntyre.

Morrison will be on the plane to Paris with world champion squad-mate and office colleague Olympia Aldersey – who has been a business transformation consultant with EY since 2021 following a law and health science double from the University of Adelaide. Aldersey will be looking to bring home back-to-back gold for Australia in the women’s four.

If they are successful, it will be just the fourth Olympic gold medal claimed by the women’s contingent of what is now dubbed the ‘Rowsellas’ (after first competing in 1984). Notably, Kate Slatter won the team’s first gold in Atlanta while working as an accountant at EY, while Rio single skulls hero Kim Brennan joined the firm following the event and is now a partner in Canberra.

While EY’s Women Athletes Business Network was established in 2013 to support female athletes in harnessing the skills they have developed throughout their competitive careers for a transition to the post-sports professional arena, Brennan was instrumental in setting up EY’s local Sporting Employment Program, which offers flexible working arrangements for current athletes.

One of those is Melissa Tapper, a part-time consultant with EY in Melbourne, who will be competing in the table tennis at both the Olympics and Paralympics in Paris, being the first Australian to achieve the dual feat back in 2016. ‘Milly’, who has brachial plexus palsy in her right arm, will start her overseas campaign as a member of Australia’s six-person Olympics squad.

“I can’t actually believe it,” Tapper said. “The goal as a kid was to qualify for an Olympics, I am now getting to head off to my third! I always just want to play my best table tennis every time I step out on the court, but if I can inspire just one young girl to get active in sport or a child with a disability to believe they can be whatever they want, then that’s the real achievement.”
