Future-oriented teaching takes place virtually! We at the International Football Institute (IFI) understand your needs and know that you cannot and do not want to be tied to a fixed location or fixed times when it comes to your own education and training. We have responded to this.

For us, one thing is certain: even from home or on the road, you have every chance of becoming even better. We always provide you with the latest input at the highest academic level. Always with the aim of qualifying you even further in your current field of activity. And as conveniently and flexibly as possible.

Why we can do that? The IFI has taken an innovative approach to learning since its foundation ten years ago. That’s why our practical education and training programmes have always been semi-virtual. . Based on this experience and our professional expertise, we are able to offer you a four-week special program in soccer management. It focuses specifically on future-relevant content, such as strategy development, bringing about change and the social responsibility (CSR) of soccer clubs.

“I myself can say from my own management experience in professional soccer that strong, strategic club management contributes enormously to increasing quality in the club, association or even company,” says IFI Managing Director Björn Bremer.

The special feature: This condensed knowledge program is completely virtual and application-oriented.

Our top people from the IFI guide you through the program. They are supported by top-class experts from the world of soccer, from whom you can not only learn in online seminars, but with whom you can also engage in personal exchange.

With your participation in the virtual 4-week program in the field of soccer management, you will expand your ability to act in soccer and achieve a competitive advantage over your competitors. Because with you the future is already present.

“They are the men and women at the top of their clubs. They are the ones who make groundbreaking decisions and implement them. Players and coaches, fan and sponsor, press and management colleagues, everyone focuses their attention on the club managers of their clubs.” (Hasel, 2019, p. 45)

Are you in such a position or want to get there?

If so, you need to constantly optimize your key competencies in soccer management or gain new ones. Only then will you be able to lead your club into a successful future.

In V4WP we talk about developing a sustainable strategy and the particular challenges soccer clubs face. We look at how to bring about change in order to keep a finger on the pulse. Dealing with resistance plays a central role in this.
