About the Book

Getting ahead in your business career may be as simple as embracing a better way to practice and improve your decision-making. Empower your leadership skills with improved strategic thinking using one of the oldest and most popular games in the world. Business on the Board reveals how strategies and tactics used in business are derived from chess. Develop a leader's mindset by using the chess method of decision-making where you look at a situation, determine what to do, and execute. Business on the Board is for career-minded leaders who are ready for the next step in their development. Instead of business cases, the author packed this book with thought-provoking lessons from chess games that address topics such as leadership, employee development, financial investing, and risk management. It's loaded with links, videos, and MBA-level content activated through gamification. A masterful compilation of stories, case studies, and games from the author's business management and tournament chess careers, Business on the Board will leave you strategically stronger and tactically sharper so that you are better prepared to win the contentious battles of business.
About the Author: J.K. Egerton is the CEO and owner of Business on the Board(R), a leading-edge training and development company that uses gamification to teach business strategies and tactics. He is a respected author, teacher, coach, manager, and entrepreneur whose work has impacted the lives of thousands.

The services of Business on the Board(R) are tailored to meet the training needs of corporate clients who want to practice and improve their leadership skills through better strategic thinking and decision-making. Corporate university classes, conference meetings, executive retreats, workshops, breakout sessions, exclusive private lessons, and keynote speaking engagements are part of his wide array of services. By combining MBA-level business content and "chess for purpose", Mr. Egerton builds skills his clients can use for a lifetime. His book, Business on the Board, supplements and expands on the training provided by the company. His corporate clients include Federal Express, RRDonnelley & Sons, and Wrigley Corporation, among others.
