Abstract
To examine the success of the U20 Norwegian male national football team of 2019

from a leadership perspective, this thesis considers several success factors that may

have helped the team reach the World Cup. It applies the theories of giving

behavior, appreciative inquiry and value-based leadership to analyze the leadership

practices within the team. Based on semi-structured interviews with 10 interview

subjects, including the head coach, players and staff, the authors outline and discuss

their findings from the interviews in combination with existing theory. The research

identifies four main factors that have been decisive for the team’s success: (1)

combining long-term dreams with short-term goals, (2) balancing vertical and

horizontal leadership by allowing people to take advantage of their strengths, (3)

creating a continuous giving behavior within the group and (4) applying

unorthodox approaches to the implementation of values.
