Steve Roush, Senior Consultant, TSE Consulting USA, said:
"Following eight wonderful and exciting years at the US Olympic Committee, I am now looking forward to assisting TSE clients around the world in optimising their elite sports programmes and their preparations for the London 2012 Olympic Games and other important events in the future".
