This is Volume Three (27 articles) of our Art of War Playbook. This part of the Playbook focuses on Sun Tzu's concepts for understanding the nature of opportunities in competition. Sun Tzu's unique method is to see opportunities in hidden "openings" that arise from changes in the environment. The Playbook itself is the culmination of over a decade of work breaking down Sun Tzu's principles into a series of step-by-step practical articles by the multiple award-winning author and internationally recognized Art of War expert, Gary Gagliardi. The work explains the concepts in the verses of Sun Tzu's classic on strategy in detail with examples from modern competition. While the original Art of War was originally written for military generals who understood the philosophical concepts of ancient China, our Art of War Playbook is written for today's readers and provide enough descriptive material so that Sun Tzu's ideas can actually be used in everyday life today.
