Strategic
Thinking in Business
Give your associates
the most important business skill they will ever need and
use, the ability to think strategically.
Lead your organization on a path to success by seizing and
capitalizing on future opportunities.
The
use of strategic games in corporate training can improve
thinking skills using business strategies and tactics.
Chess-Now
is working with the Harper
College Career Stimulus Program on
a series of seminars for people in career transition.
"No
One Wins Until Someone Makes a Move" parallels
the playing of a chess match to the phases of a job search.
Strategic thinking that results in better decision making
will help participants stay focused on their search.
Business
schools have been using models of deliberate practice
for over 80 years. Leading
MBA programs use the same techniques chess players use. See
how under MBA
