About this product
 
The theory of business strategy is extensively developed, and Hansen adopts the novel approach of investigating whether any of the vast amounts of research and modeling done for business purposes can be applied to chess. He finds that there are indeed many useful parallels, and focuses on how these ideas can be used to good effect by chess-players, both in their preparation and when making over-the-board decisions.

This unique new approach to chess strategy, explained by a grandmaster who is also an expert in the theory of business strategy, covers topics including:
  • What is chess strategy?
  • The factors shaping chess strategy:
  • The opponents: The role of the human factor in chess
  • Characteristics of reflectors
  • Characteristics of theorists
  • Characteristics of pragmatics
  • Characteristics of activists
  • Environmental factors

He has won the Danish Championship on two occasions, and represented his country in four Olympiads, winning a bronze medal for his individual performance in 1990.
