Brief primer article related to the "Art of War" for business
Appying the Art of War to business is often talked about but what does it really mean?
The Art of War is recognized as the most comprehensive text on strategy. Applied Zen's approach of applying the Art of War to business includes the ettiquette and networking side of relationships using lessons from the real business world, martial arts (budo) & "Zen" philosophy & strategy. Additionally, the classic text "Tao de Ching" is applied to the Art of War, and business examples, to emphasize that change is inevitable in either networking or other business contexts. Fast response to change through efficiency and strategy is stressed in Sun Tzu's Art of War, and the correlations between the Art of War and modern business are extremely strong which is why it is often quoted by leading corporate executives & business schools. "Zen" concepts are innately built into Sun Tzu's Art of War text, however, it can be further expanded when one considers that "Zen" relates to understanding oneself (either a company, or an individual) in detail using standard business planning practices. When combined, the Art of War, Zen, and business lead to an insightful approach to S.W.O.T. analysis to aid business growth.
