Yesterday, the London Organising Committee for the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games (LOCOG) unveiled the Game Makers’ uniforms for London 2012. As I am the adidas Product and Project Manager for the uniforms, this was a very special day for me. It was the day the team and I have been working towards with LOCOG for the last two years.
My job is to coordinate and to oversee the entire product creation process from the first design sketches to the products’ delivery to the warehouses. LOCOG set the brief for what they would like the volunteer’s kit to look like and the functionality that they wanted from the product. I am responsible for driving the project, making everyone happy and bringing together the needs, ideas and visions of LOCOG, the IOC and adidas.
