Previously, he was the President of the Sochi 2014 Olympic Organizing Committee for the 2014 Winter Olympics which were held in Sochi, Russia.[1]
Since 27 November 2014, Chernyshenko has been the President of the Kontinental Hockey League, replacing Alexander Medvedev.[2] In addition, he was appointed as Board Chairman of Gazprom-Media in December 2014.[3] Chernyshenko is also member of the Supervisory Board of Sberbank of Russia (2020–21).[4]
He was removed from the IOC Coordination Commission Beijing 2022 by the International Olympic Committee, due to his involvement in the Russian doping scandal.[5]
In 2014, Chernyshenko was awarded the Olympic Order and the Paralympic Order.[6] He was stripped of the orders, however, on 28 February and 2 March 2022, respectively, due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.[7][8] Chernyshenko responded by saying: "Our country has always adhered to the principle that sport is beyond politics, but we are constantly drawn into the politics, because they understand the importance of sport in the lives of our Russian people."[9] In 2023, he further lashed out at the West at the Russian sports forum:[10]
We have a lot of international competitions this year, despite the fact that countries that are unfriendly to us are trying to exclude us from the system of world sports.
But nothing works out for them, we see that the “Friendship Games” and the All-Russian Spartakiad, “Games of the Future”, “Children of Asia” and many other competitions are held, no matter what.
Countries come, some, however, with apprehension, because they are afraid of [Western] sanctions. But we know that time will put everything in its place, we know that not a single international competition is complete without our [Russian] athletes.
We saw how, at the tune of the Anglo-Saxons, all international organizations, starting with the IOC (International Olympic Committee), began to put obstacles for the participation of our athletes in international sports competitions, and they continue to do so.
In 2019, Chernyshenko entered Variety magazine's list of the 500 most influential business leaders in the media industry for a second year in a row.[11]
