Chess as a Visualization Tool for Corporate Leadership: Lessons in Strategy and Agility
Shobhan Banoth
Abstract: In an era of rapid change and uncertainty, corporate leaders must harness strategic thinking, adaptability, and continuous improvement. This article explores how chess serves as a powerful visualization tool for leadership development, drawing parallels between chess strategies and business decision-making. The Kanban-Chess analogy illustrates how chess phases (Opening, Middle Game, End Game) align with corporate workflows (To Do, In Progress, Done), while key chess principles like situational leadership, resource optimization, and flow management map directly to leadership practices. By applying chess frameworks, leaders can enhance strategic agility, foster innovation, and drive sustainable success.
