    About this audiobook

    This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

    How can we apply the strategy of the greatest chess grandmasters to our businesses? What can we learn about flexibility in business from the 1984 Moscow clash between legendary chess champions Anatoly Karpov and Garry Kasparov? What insights can we gain from the game between Kasparov and IBM's Deep Blue computer?

    Talent, strategy, practice, patience, tactics, concentration, mindset, attitude… these are all fundamental elements for a good chess player and, as shown by the eight-time Spanish Chess champion Miguel Illescas shows us in this book, they are also essential for any professional who wants to succeed in their work.

    In this work, the first to link business and chess, the author explains how to make the most of chess techniques and apply them to business.
