Appying the Art of War to business is often talked about but what does it really mean? Often business strategists do not consider the Art of War for business applications, despite the fact that it 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 strategies from the Art of War and Zen. Additionally, the classic text "Tao de Ching" is applied to the Art of War and business to emphasize that change is inevitable. 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 business are extremely strong. Zen and business is 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 in detail. Therefore, when combined with the Art of War, Zen and business leads to an insightful approach to business S.W.O.T. Additionally Zen and business tie together due to the need for clear high level decision making in a dynamic environment.
