Holiday Travel Guide: The Game of Golf & The Art of Business: Success On and Off the Course

Nov 19, 2012 | Rita

When you are traveling it always mean more time for reading so here is another book to add to your traveling selection!

About the Book:

As Mark Twain said, “Golf is a good walk spoiled.” Our careers would be great walks if they weren’t spoiled by the same sort of mistakes we make on the course. If we could master our mistakes and develop our discipline, we could find more success in the game of golf and the art of business. Bob is a decent guy and a great businessman–but only an average golfer. He has a dream to play the famous Bethpage Black Course, scene of two recent U.S. Opens, and survive with his dignity intact. To keep from spoiling that famous walk, he brings along his mentor, Scott Seifferlein, who has played the

Bethpage Black Course many times before as a coach and competitor. While showing Bob how to think his way around the course, Scott gives him crucial tips for overcoming common mistakes. Together, they realize how the same mistakes that can spoil a scorecard can spoil any business or career. In The Game of Golf & the Art of Business, Scott tells the story of how he kept Bob’s big day on Bethpage Black from becoming a bust. He shares the most important tips and tactics that he has learned from coaching thousands of players over the years. Through Scott, we learn how these are also strategies for success in the marketplace. The Game of Golf & The Art Business sprinkles an entertaining story with keen insights and useful nuggets for succeeding at whatever you do, whether on or off the course.

My Thoughts:

Since I am not really a golf person  I did not really know what to expect before I started reading this but I found that author,  Scott Seifferlein did a great job  telling a story about a wealthy businessman that he helps coach throughout 18 holes on a very difficult course.  Each hole contains a struggle or a victory that the businessman endures, which most golfers can relate to.  After each hole, the author explains how this struggle or victory on the golf course correlates with the business world. Overall,  this is a very good book.

    My husband would likely enjoy this book far more than I would I havent been on a course since I was a child! This would be a good read for someone wanting to be in business who happens to golf- nice review thank you!
