In this episode we focus on succession planning & discipline and how these elements are key to success for a sporting director and a football organisation. We look at Brighton, whose model incorporates these elements with multiple examples over the years that has allowed them to ascend both on the pitch and off it. 
 
Join Shailash (COO of Get Football Group) and David (Chief Researcher at DirectorOfFootball.com) as they discuss the way Brighton operate and why they are so admired right now.
