#19 Claudio:   

Claudio Coldebella is a former Italian basketball player, GM of the Italian 2nd Division and currently a successful Sports Director at Unics Kazan. Claudio started his playing career in Mestre in 1986 before moving to Desio and Virtus Bologna later on. Claudio also has the experience of playing abroad, he spent 6 years of his career in Greece playing for AEK and PAOK before returning to Italy and finishing his career in Milano in 2006. Claudio also spent many summers with the Italian National Team and was also a big part of the Silver medal in the EuroBasket of 1997. He finished his successful career with plenty of titles, winning the Saporta Cup in 1990, 3 Italian league championships, the Italian cup as well as the Greek Cup in 1999.

Today, Claudio and me had a conversation about a lot of interesting topics around the job of a Sports Director. We talked about the importance of cultural adjustments for players and how his experience helped him help others today, the importance of watching practices, communicating with the Head Coach as well as players and the subtle art of building a culture within an organization.
