EPISODE 2: How Chess can help you make better informed decisions

“Know the detail but don’t get lost in it” 


What do STRAVA, Chess and The fall of the Roman Empire have in common? They can all teach us something about the importance of setting realistic, strategic goals. 


Operations Director at The Tech Dept, Chris Rhodes joins hosts Zuki and Ben where they discuss how games have equipped him with the right skills for a successful career in business operations.


Find out how real time strategy games teach you to prioritise, how video games remind you not to get bogged down in the details and how to improve your business by always playing against someone better than you. 

Let’s Play Business is hosted by Ben Fowler and Zuki Majuqwana and produced and edited by Evie Appleson.
