Chess and business

Hello,

With a few decades of experience in business and chess domains, I’m considering developing a course that highlights the similarities between the two fields and demonstrates how strategic thinking and analytics used in chess can be effectively applied to different business aspects.

Do you think a course like this would be interesting for chess players?

me personally, no

There is some cross over between chess and business, like analytics and strategic thinking. But much of business is personal communication skills. The ability to negotiate and compromise.

Most of chess doesn't have that gray area. Chess doesn't have that personal touch that a lot of businesses require. I'm not a poker player but I've heard poker has more in common with business than most other games.

Yeah, business success in my opinion is more attributable to people skills than anything else. Not all, but mostly. Of course it's very important to be good at what u do but u have to be able to get people to WANT to do business with u. Chess ain't like that at all.
