A view from above, looking over people’s heads into the TV studio. In the centre of the studio floor, a man is speaking whilst standing at a lectern. Behind him, on three large LED screens, the topic of the talk is displayed: ā€˜What can your company/team learn from FC Bayern? Factors for success in achieving peak team performance’.

Hƶrwick drew on these opportunities in his talk. Over a period of 35 years, he had built up FC Bayern’s media operations – from a press office into a globally active sports organisation with a highly professional media production department. He explained to the future (media) leaders at HSMW how to build successful teams and what principles must be observed to achieve peak performance. However, he did not refer to himself in the process. Instead, he explained to the students which managers at FC Bayern had been successful and why – and what the reasons were for others’ failures.
