The World Football Summit Podcast E1: Leadership lessons from owning a football club with Jordan Gardner
World Football Summit speaks exclusively to Jordan Gardner, an American sports executive who is Former Chairman of the Board, Managing Partner, and Co-Owner at FC Helsingør, a football team from Denmark.
Three years after his group acquired the Danish soccer club, he shares with us many valuable lessons about culture, leadership, and much more, which help prove why he was a worthy finalist for the Best Executive Award at World Football Summit.
Before FC Helsingør, Gardner held minority stakes in Swansea City AFC in Wales and Dundalk FC in the Republic of Ireland. His approach, which is contrary to that of other North American investors, is to start small and learn the business from the base. You can find more about him on:
