My company is in our training season where employees can attend courses on everything from healthy eating to networking soft skills to industry specific accounting stuff (I work at an accounting firm in IT)

I made a joke to my boss about running a Go course because of business strategy mumble mumble.

Is there any websites or literature that claim that learning the rudiments of Go can be helpful for business people?

I would love to have an excuse to teach Go.

That does kind of close the subject.

Unless someone now points us to: "GO: an Asian paradigm for business strategy II: How to teach go in the training season where employees can attend courses, in Coyote's accounting firm".

I was searching for this book for this thread, but couldn't remember the title or author. I discovered it in the library one day some time back and was surprised I had never heard of the author since he had spent much of his go playing "career" in Seattle.
