He set twelve world records over four distances, achieving four golds and three silver medals in the Olympics and European Championships.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He tells the story in his autobiography, Running My Life. Talking about the setbacks as well as victories, he shows how he beat the competition by facing down everything in training: \u201cYou don\u2019t become a champion by turning up and hoping to get lucky.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using his political skills, his strategic know-how and a true passion for sport, Lord Sebastian Coe won the bid to host the 2012 Olympics in London. Seven years later the Prime Minister thanked him for \u201clifting our hearts\u201d after organising the most successful games of modern times. After the games Lord Coe served as chairman of the British Olympic Association and is now President of the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lord-sebastian-coe-lecture-topics\">Lord Sebastian Coe Lecture Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sport and politics: The geopolitical implications<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Winning and losing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>London 2012: A whole nation gets behind the Olympic Games<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Athletics, a global sport<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In speeches Seb takes audiences from his own on-track rivalries to the lessons learned from London \u2013 overseeing an enormous infrastructure and logistical exercise in one of the world\u2019s great cities. He highlights the need to build a resilient and dependable team, from a variety of backgrounds; to be seen to deliver on your vision (even while under constant scrutiny); and to communicate pre-emptively and leave nothing to chance. Above all, he underlines the age-old proposition that no amount of theorising replaces \u2018the genius of hard work.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Lord Sebastian Coe \u2013 A passionate Sportsman &amp; Keynote Speaker<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before he took on the Olympic role Lord Sebastian Coe served as an MP, a Government Whip and Private Secretary to William Hague \u2013 which provides a variety of anecdotes and insights. He also set up a chain of health clubs and acted as a global advisor to Nike. As IAAF President, he faces new challenges and controversies with characteristic zeal, intelligence and diplomacy unpinned by his unwavering love of sport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sebastian Coe was made a Life Peer, becoming Lord Coe of Ranmore, and has since been appointed a KBE. He received a BBC Sports Personality Lifetime Achievement Award, and was named \u2018Greatest Briton\u2019 in the Morgan Stanley Awards. He also secured the 2017 World Athletics Championships for London. In this case it is only the third largest sporting event on the planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lord Sebastian Coe is represented by The Premium Speakers Agency.
