Why Chess?
Additionally, it provides a mental break from routine tasks, reducing stress and fostering creativity. By participating in chess classes together, employees can engage in friendly competition, build connections, improve communication, and develop a fun, intellectually stimulating habit that enhances your business's bottom line.
Chess has often been used as a method of professional development for corporate leaders. Legends such as Warren Buffett, Bill Gates and Richard Branson have all cited the discipline of regularly playing chess as one of the reasons for their success.
On top of all that, the game has managed to survive for 2000 years for the simple reason that it's incredibly enjoyable! Our 2 hour in-office sessions will show your employees not just the basics, but how to become a dangerous player in as short a time as possible.
