I like the strategies chess teaches because they're very natural. There is no way to go against them and win unless you get very, very lucky. Thanks Robin.

Chess is a great challenge. I like it because it exercises both the analytical side and the creative side of your brain at the same time. And yeah, a lot of companies bring their checkers skills to a chess game! :) Anthony,

I love the game of Chess, and I've thought about this as an analogy for business and life strategy before. Great job laying it all out. That last line about "the game's chess not checkers" is a great reminder. I think that a lot of businesses, especially smaller ones, deal like there playing checkers......rather than having a strategic plan and making the most of every opportunity. Shane,
