Episode notes

Today, we welcome Daniel Bernard to the show. Now, if you don’t know who Daniel is, I suggest you stick around for this fantastic conversation around data strategy, leadership, the power of sports to change the world… We went all over the place!

Daniel has more than 20 years of experience in the sports industry as a Founder & an investor, so he really brings a unique perspective to the table, which is why I was very much looking forward to having him as a guest.

In particular, we discuss:

His new venture, Kick Off- More than Football, and how he helps leading football organizations to get the most out of their data from both a “performance” and “commercial” point of view
The principles behind an effective data strategy, including examples of top-tier sports organizations that can be a benchmark for the football industry
He also shares amazing stories about how football can help make a better world
His approach to leadership, making tough decisions, and having difficult conversations during challenging times like the ones we live in
How networking at in-person events has led him to new opportunities he had not even considered.

This was a true masterclass and I hope you get value from it too! But, as a quick disclaimer, this conversation should not be taken as financial advice. It is provided for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only.

Daniel was also a speaker at WFS Europe and you can find the panel he participated in on our official YouTube channel.
