LECTURES
“The nature of the decision making process is little explored. Computers look
at millions of options per second, weighing each one to find the mathematically
best moves. And yet a human, seeing just two or three options per second, but
guided by intuition and experience, could compete with the mighty machines.”
Garry Kasparov, WSJ, 03/14/05
In early 1980s, “Harvard Business Review” conducted a survey of the top 100 American
CEOs with the goal to identifying a single most important factor that contributed to
the phenomenal success of those CEOs. To the surprise of many, all 100 said it was
listening to their instinct and intuition. Chess players use the unique formula in
thinking; the same formula that fosters the thinking process in chess could be used
to improve problem solving and decision making in business. Chess is a natural
training tool to enhance effectiveness of thinking. The decision making process
in chess involves making hundreds of decisions under time pressure with limited
information and the stiff resistance of an intelligent opponent.
What does it take to make quick and sound decisions? Go to the source,
learn from a Master.

WORKSHOPS for EMPLOYEES and their CHILDREN
Vivacity offers programs for employees and their children/grandchildren. Not only
does chess develop "mental muscles" but the game also creates a bond between parents
and children. This program provides an opportunity for adults (dads, moms, grandparents,
etc.) to spend time with their children and introduce them to an intellectually
stimulating activity at the same time. Each workshop includes an interactive
instruction and ample time for play between parent and child, and/or between families.

- CHESS CLUB
- Chess Clubs allow employees and their children to play under the supervision of and with pointers
from an experienced instructor. Chess breaks age, gender, and racial barriers and allow participants
to enjoy an intellectually stimulating activity in a safe environment.
- BUSINESS and COMMUNITY
- Become a sponsor of a chess program at a local school. Bring chess with all of it benefits of
cognitive development to children in your neighborhood. Help local kids make better moves in chess
and in life.
