The world of football is becoming increasingly complex. Decisions not only have to be taken under significant time constraints, they are often quite cost-intensive.

Hundreds of millions in player transfers are no longer far and between. In the top leagues they have become a common sight. Highly skilled managers and coaches are greatly sought after, player, fan, and sponsoring demands are consistently increasing. The sport of of football has transformed into a high-powered business requiring top-notch individuals and strategies.

Football is a top sport, on and off the pitch. It requires strong and efficient teams on the green as well as management teams that share the same ideas and are able to work as an effective unit. Teams that are able to act swiftly and that are capable of implementing necessary strategies. It is the management's task to inspire and enthuse fans and employees alike. Their competencies are the driving forces that turn goals and a vision for the club's future into a club-wide mission.

Where club managers were once able to run their club as a one-man show, they now rely on their ability to increase to collaborate with others. It is a club manager's competencies that stimulate involvement, commitment, and motivation of other club stakeholders in the pursuit of success.

The professional management of today's football makes it impossible for one person alone to lead and manage a club. It takes a team with various skills and expertise that are both complimentary and deployed in unison for a club to be part of the top tier. Covering the different areas of a professional football club takes skill and knowledge. Yet, with the increasing complexity and fast pace in professional football, keeping track of the different managerial areas and identifying the areas of improvement may frequently be challenging.

In order to address these changing times and support clubs in their pursuit of success, we offer two different management solutions:
