Transcript of South Florida Marketplace segment that aired on Feb. 14, 2002, on WLRN, 91.3 FM, at 7:40 a.m.

 A South Florida firm has a hand in the Winter Olympics, and another helps foreign banks detect money-laundering. This is Doralisa Pilarte. 

Neither Jamaica nor Florida have any snow, but that didn’t prevent one from having a bob-sled team in the Winter Olympics and another from serving up a Broward company to help them reach for the gold.

That’s right: the Jamaican Bob-Sled Team underwent intense strategy-defining and team-building training with Framework Consulting of Pembroke Pines.

Amie Devero, vice president of knowledge and learning at Framework Consulting, says the company’s goal in the training session was to generate sufficient drive, vision and cohesion within the team to help them win a medal in Salt Lake City.

Only three members of the Jamaican bob-sled team were able to attend the Winter Olympics this year, through injuries, lack of funding and equipment failure. 

The Jamaican bob-sled team is scheduled to compete in Utah this Saturday and Sunday.
