#17 Daniele
Daniele Baiesi is currently a successful Sports Director at FC Bayern Munich. After leading Brose Bamberg to multiple domestic titles in Germany he continued his successful run at FC Bayern Munich in 2017 and has lead the team to multiple titles since his arrival as well. Daniele started his basketball career at Pallacanestro Biella in 2003 in the Italian league where he spent 6 years. The Detroit Pistons were his next stage where he worked as their international scout and had the pleasure to work alongside Joe Dumars before going to Bamberg and the rest is history.
Daniele and me had a very in-depth conversation about what the Sports Director job really is. We talked about his times at Biella and at the Detroit Pistons and what lessons he took away from working with Joe Dumars. Daniele went into depth about handling information within the club and went into depth about the Paul Zipser situation last season. Handling information internally vs externally, especially when building a roster and recruiting certain players, as well as the essence of crisis management and how he goes about it when he sees a crisis on the horizon.
Lots of great stories and metaphors with plenty of movie-quotes to go with. Enjoy this conversation and leave a review. SUBSCRIBE if you are not a subscriber yet and leave a comment if you have something to say.
