Andre Villas-Boas - Inside The Mind Of The Elite

This week we have Andre Villas-Boas join us on the podcast! Andre is one of the world's top football managers, who has coached Porto, Chelsea, Tottenham & more! Andre is also the youngest manager to ever win a European title.

We spoke to Andre live at the Web Summit earlier this year, which was held in Lisbon, Portugal 🇵🇹 The topic of our talk with Andre was 'Inside The Mind Of The Elite'.

We talk:

Combining talent with personal drive
How he has adapted his leadership style of the years
The 'Untold: Breaking Point' Netflix Series
His love of racing
Advice for people listening

We very rarely release podcast episodes that have taken place live in person, so this episode is a bit different for us. It's also the first time that we've had someone from football join us. A special thanks to the team at Web Summit for organizing this 😃

Let us know what you think!
