Adulthood: Revisited
Episode 30: En Passant! Using Chess to Empower You in Business and in Life with Evan Rabin
May 29, 2020
A:R Nation, what's the good word?! The sun is out, we have another day, so let's enjoy it. Speaking of the sun being out and enjoying the day, have you ever been to a park and seen people playing chess? I don't know why, but to me, it's so fascinating. With all that's going on around them, the players are sitting there, quietly focused on this game. I wonder what they're thinking about, and I also wonder how much they reveal about themselves in their matchplay. Fortunately, we are lucky to have Evan Rabin on this episode of the podcast. Evan is a chessmaster. He fell in love with chess at a very early age and never looked back. For a while, he held roles in the corporate world, then realized that the work and that world didn't align with his values. After leaving corporate, he went back to what he loved - chess - and started Premier Chess, where he works to bring the game of chess - and all the lessons it teaches about life - to children across NYC and beyond. In this episode, Evan shares with us why he fell in love with chess, and he wants to share it with the world. He shares with us why he believes chess can provide valuable lessons, not just to children, but also as adults as we navigate business, relationships, and beyond. Evan gives us insight into sales - how he approaches organizations like law firms and schools - and enrolls them into bringing on chess classes as a benefit. This conversation was a really fun one that got lots of creative juices flowing - and also took me way back in time to when I played chess in school. I always lost track of the bishops on the board.
