Abstract:
Use poker strategy to become a better decision maker In high-stakes poker, you need patience and aggression — qualities that translate to the world of business. In The Shark and the Fish, Charley Swayne applies winning poker strategies to decision-making and leadership. Learn how to:  avoid losing control and going on tilt,  turn losses into lessons,  perfect the art of negotiating a deal,  understand the stakes and your financial limitations,  evaluate your opponents, and assess what they know about you,  read risk and reward — should you bid, bluff, or fold? In this unique strategy book, Charley Swayne teaches you how to be the shark at the boardroom table, not the fish.
