A billionaire use chess concepts

Chess is a contained universe: there are only 32 pieces on the board and 64 squares those pieces can occupy. But starting up a company takes much more than raw intellectual ability; it requires what the billionaire calls “The Mechanics of Mafia,” or the understanding of complex human dynamics. Linking the two worlds is the billionaire’s passion. Here are some of the chess concepts he highlighted :

Know the relative value of your pieces
Know how your pieces work best together
Know the phases of the game and have a plan
Talent matters; there is more to success than luck
Chess is a brutal mental game : make your moves carefully.
