BONUS: Why a Former Chess Champion Thinks Your Leadership Is Stuck in the Opening Game John Whitt spent 30 years managing billion-dollar construction portfolios in corporate America — sleeping five or six nights a week in hotel beds, traveling the country, winning at someone else's game. Then he walked away. In this episode, he breaks down what chess taught him about business phases, why generosity outperforms hustle in the long run, and how the "pause factor" keeps leaders from burning out while scaling their impact. From Corporate Construction to Coaching — The Move That Changed Everything "I spent 5, sometimes 6 nights a week, sleeping in a hotel bed, traveling around the country, and it really wasn't good for my sanity, it wasn't good for my family. And then the company decided to move from Southern California to Dallas, and so that was like the — I'm not going to Dallas move, and it's time to start something else."   John's corporate career was successful by every external measure — managing $500 million construction portfolios at companies like CB Richard Ellis. But the lifestyle was hollowing him out. He'd been thinking about leaving for a while when the relocation to Dallas forced his hand. Through behavioral assessment work, he discovered coaching was where his strengths naturally pointed — it had been his primary leadership style all along. In 2010, he invested in a Focal Point coaching franchise, which gave him the tools and training without having to reinvent the wheel. Combined with 30 years of corporate relationships, it was enough to launch. His reflection on the transition is simple: "The cool thing about coaching is that we're just helping people." The Chess Game of Business — Opening, Middle, and End "The way the chess game is played at the higher levels has influenced my way of thinking essentially for the rest of my life. The opening is where you're getting started — startup business, takes a lot of hustle, a lot of energy. But then the transition happens to the middle game, where you have to think a lot more strategically, and tactically with the right move in the right order, because the wrong order will not get you the results you're looking for."   John played in the United States Chess Championships in 1976, and the framework stuck. He maps business growth to three chess phases: the opening (startup hustle, high energy, you do everything), the middle game (strategic delegation, building systems, hiring people with an ownership mindset), and the end game (transitioning assets and resources to serve the life you actually want). The danger zone is the opening-to-middle transition. Founders and leaders get trapped being the go-to person for everything — solving everyone else's problems during business hours and doing their own work after hours and on weekends. The middle game demands a different skill: learning to operate on the business instead of always in it. And it can't happen overnight — you have to prioritize what to change, in what order, or it gets jumbled up. Accomplishing Goals Through Others — The Magic of Discretionary Effort "The magic is accomplishing goals through other people, because when you do that, you're going to do big things. As an individual, you can only do so much. There's only so many hours in a day."   John keeps coming back to one idea: if you're doing it all yourself, your impact is capped at 24 hours. The real unlock is getting other people to give their discretionary effort — that extra gear where someone stays 20 minutes longer because they care, or thinks about the project at home because they're genuinely excited. Discretionary effort isn't something you can demand. It comes from inspiration. John frames it through WIIFM — "What's In It For Me?" — everybody's favorite radio station. Leaders who skip that question get compliance. Leaders who answer it get mountains moved.   The flip side is equally important: many leaders have never been on a high-performing team, so they don't know what they're missing. They accept compliance as normal. Others are smart and capable but lack the relationship skills to inspire. John's point is clear: leadership through inspiration is a learnable skill, not an innate trait. Generosity as Strategy — Time, Talent, and Treasure "Generosity always — I mean, this is unequivocal — always gives you better long-term results. If you plan to be generous, if you say this is who I am and I will do the work that's necessary to be generous, then you will always get better long-term results."   John's 4-Facet LifeShine Generosity Process puts generosity at the center of leadership — an unusual move in a world that defaults to performance metrics and execution frameworks. His argument is that generosity isn't soft. It's strategic. The framework starts with unique identity (who are you?), then moves through three dimensions: time, talent, and treasure. Most people think generosity means writing a check. John says time and talent are far more powerful. A leader who invests the time to communicate vision and inspire the team is being generous — and that generosity compounds into better team performance, stronger relationships, and less burnout over time.   The risk, though, is over-giving. Agile coaches and scrum masters who tie their identity to the work are especially vulnerable — they give so generously at work that they burn out when results don't match expectations. That's where the plan matters: define the life you want, build the business or career to serve that life, and stay disciplined about boundaries. The Pause Factor — How Leaders Protect Their Thinking "You gotta learn to say pause. That's a great idea, I understand what you're saying, we need to spend a little more time on that — so let me schedule some time later. Because right now, if I spend all that time, it's not going to get my best thinking, it's not going to get my best response."   People bring problems to leaders constantly — personal problems, business problems, urgent and not-urgent mixed together. The instinct is to solve immediately. John teaches leaders the "pause factor": acknowledge the importance of what someone brings you, then schedule dedicated time to address it properly. This isn't avoidance — it's quality control for your own thinking. When you're distracted and rushed, you give worse answers. When you pause, you also create space to ask: is this mine to solve, or does it belong to someone on my team?   John extends this to how teams bring problems: train people to come with clarity — here's the problem, here's the challenge, here's some potential solutions. That way the leader can triage effectively in a short time instead of getting pulled into an unstructured conversation that eats an hour.

Chess. At first, the idea of thinking like a chess champion may sound like an impossible feat if we do not know how to play the game, but as winner of two U.S. Women's Chess Championships and the first woman to win the U.S. Junior Chess Open, Jennifer Shahade shares in her new book, it all comes down to thinking well. Or to put it more precisely, thinking sideways. In my conversation with Jennifer, who is also a two-time Global Poker Award winner and silver Olympic medalist, she will share what she means by her chosen title, and then we will dive into specific decision-making strategies that champion chess players like herself use and how they also translate into creating a life we love living. Be sure to tune in to the audio version of our conversation as we will talk about the power of embracing intermezzos, why presence is crucial to seeing and then seizing opportunity, why focusing on our strengths is far more valuable than zeroing in on our weaknesses, and many more worthwhile pieces of life advice as witnessed through the lens of the game of chess. I do hope you enjoy the episode as Jennifer was a great guest and shared freely. And her Petit Plaisir offers a new perspective on a word we may have unfairly defined negatively.

A Note from JamesOne of my favorite people in the world is back on the podcast: Jen Shahade. She's been on the show before. She's a great chess player, a great poker player, a two-time U.S. Women's Chess Champion, and the author of the new book Thinking Sideways, about how lessons from chess can help with decision-making.As a chess player myself, I can say these techniques really do work. And she even talks about me in the book, which I appreciated. So: how are you going to think sideways? Listen to this podcast. Episode DescriptionJames talks with Jen Shahade about what chess and poker can teach us about money, ambition, risk, focus, and decision-making. The conversation starts with income: why salary alone rarely creates real savings, why “big chunks” of money matter more, and why relying on a single job is getting riskier in an AI-shaped economy. From there, they get into one of the core ideas behind Jen's book: most people think too narrowly. They frame decisions as yes or no, take it or leave it, this city or that city, this job or no job. Jen argues that stronger decision-makers force themselves to find a third option, and often that third option is the one that changes everything. They also talk about career reinvention later in life, how AI can help people learn faster, why chess is such a good training ground for focus, and what it means to stay calm when you've already made a mistake and the position has gone bad. The deeper point running through the whole episode is that good decisions rarely come from certainty. They come from staying flexible, thinking in chunks, and continuing to move even when the path isn't obvious yet. What You'll LearnWhy unexpected “big chunk” income is often more useful for building wealth than salary increases alone. How AI can make later-life career changes and self-education more realistic than they used to be. Why binary decisions are often traps, and how forcing a third option can clarify what you actually want. Why focus is becoming a rarer and more valuable skill in a world built around distraction. How strong decision-makers try to disprove their own ideas before committing to them. Why mistakes, embarrassment, and bad positions are often signs that you are stretching yourself in the right direction. How ambition can become dangerous when it gets disconnected from process and values. Timestamped Chapters[02:00] Big money in surprising chunksWhy salary usually gets spent, and why real savings often come from sudden wins. [02:16] AI, job security, and choosing yourself Why relying on a salary feels shakier now, and how AI changes the equation. [03:10] A Note from James James introduces Jen and the core idea behind Thinking Sideways. [03:49] The book, poker, and having at least three things going on Jen talks about the book launch, poker income, and diversified income streams. [05:35] Why salary increases don't create savings The psychology of earning more, spending more, and feeling punished by success. [08:15] AI as threat and opportunity The jobs AI may replace, and the new skills it can help people build. [09:42] Reinventing yourself later in life A story about becoming a lawyer at 47, one step at a time. [12:23] Chess and short-term chunks Why good decision-making means solving the next problem, not obsessing over the final outcome. [13:31] AI, age, and chess intuition How computers changed chess learning, and why experience still matters. [17:17] Regret, mistakes, and always having another chance How losing positions still teaches resilience and opportunity. [20:15] Always have three choices Why the best decision often appears only after you stop thinking in binaries. [22:20] Buying a house vs. not buying at all How being stuck between two options can blind you to the real third option. [24:31] The Stanford $5 challenge A creativity experiment about reframing the problem instead of solving the obvious one. [28:00] Focus as a competitive advantage Why being fully locked in matters more than just knowing more. [29:22] Deep work in a distracted world Why focus is becoming a rare skill and how to protect it. [33:16] Learning new skills with AI Coding, language learning, and using AI to create personalized practice. [35:25] Why AI can feel exhausting How AI can keep people in a deep-work state longer than they expect. [36:00] Why large language models are bad at chess Confabulation, pattern recognition, and what that reveals about AI and learning. [44:03] Ambition, values, and cheating Why Jen included cheating in a book about decision-making. [47:00] Chess cheating, Hans Niemann, and online trust The difference between online cheating, live cheating, and the damage done to opponents. [57:00] Falsifying your own ideas Why stronger players spend more time disproving their moves. [01:00:00] Balancing doubt with action How to stress-test an idea without freezing yourself. [01:02:00] Why ambition matters, even if the first move is crude Magnus, scholar's mate, and why it's okay to start by trying to win. [01:04:00] Work harder when things are going well Why success is often the moment to press, not relax. [01:04:58] Final thoughts on the book James closes on why Thinking Sideways works and what makes it different.

Susie starts telling a story about how she and Adam got into a fight over their estate planning and living wills, but she is suddenly interrupted in a stranger-than-fiction actual emergency while we're recording. When we reconvene, we hear what happened, and discuss the strange coincidence of the timing. It's wild. She talks about her new interest in chess, and tries to understand why chess might attract a certain kind of person, like Bobby Fischer, whose genius offers incredible skill at the game, but ends up causing their demise. And we discuss a scandal in the chess world involving b-holes, but Susie thinks it's more related to the type of person who is obsessed with chess. And we learn about the woman with the highest IQ, the reason why she isn't more famous, and why she was treated so predicably bad by interviewers over the years. We hear about a possible serial killer stalking the streets of Chicago and how one TikToker thinks he is going to solve the mystery with his "investigation." Hear why YouTubers keep doing cringey and dangerous things, and it's making us nuts. Susie shares why a lot of Asian-American women are named Connie, and how representation is so important. Plus, we debate who sold out more: Maury Povich or Judge Judy.

Perpetual Chess is back with another bonus pod discussing the ongoing Magnus Carlsen/Hans Niemann controversy. The major news of the week was that GM Magnus Carlsen issued a statement on Monday confirming that he suspects GM Hans Niemann of cheating.

David has worked with both Dr. Kenneth Regan and also the Chess.com cheat detection team.

It's hard to practice psychology in high stakes situations. But it's necessary. I've been practicing this forever. I practice with chess, in business, in negotiating, in investing. Jennifer Shahade also practices this. Actually, no. She's mastered it. She's the U.S. Women's Chess Champion and a professional poker player. We've been playing chess together since we were kids. And I recently went on her podcast, "The Poker Grid." And I'm airing it here for you. We talk about crypto, diversifying your investments, side hustles, and negotiating.
