In one of his tweets, Elon Musk recommended Homer's The Iliad as "the greatest story ever".

What does this entrepreneur and investor find so fascinating about a poem written thousands of years ago?

The story of The Iliad is certainly fascinating, but there is something more.

There is something in The Iliad that makes this story directly relevant and applicable to our modern times.

STRATEGIC WISDOM

The Iliad, The Odyssey and the History of the Peloponnesian war have two things in common.

They are great stories.

But they are also fundamental, if often forgotten, sources of strategic wisdom.

Now, you may think: OK, but how are the stories written in Ancient Greece relevant to my business, work and life decisions in the 21st century?

They are relevant because the lessons these masterpieces teach us are timeless.

And here is something funny:

The most powerful and wealthy people get it. They GET the importance of these ancient books and they learn from them religiously.

Don't believe me?

In 2022, J.P. Morgan Private Bank announced "its 23rd annual summer reading list, which has become the seasonal “it list” of literary status symbols for the ultra-wealthy"

Among the books on leadership and NFTs is... Greek mythology.

OK, so what does it mean for you?

It means that in order to truly stand out from the crowd and make better-grounded, better-informed strategic decisions, you have to become fluent in the Ancient-Greek strategic thought.

And this is precisely what this course will teach you in the form of highly-accessible video lectures, supported by downloadable material and practical exercises.

This course is especially relevant to you if you:

  • Have your own business or are planning to become an entrepreneur and would like to improve your strategic thinking but also impress others with your understanding of ancient Greek literature
  • Work in a corporation or anywhere where there are other people, and would like to impress your boss or simply make better decisions to advance your career faster
  • If you are a student, or simply someone who is interested in Strategy and its ancient roots, this course will be a perfect fit for you.

Here is an overview of what you will learn in this course:

  • Apply the principles of Ancient Greek strategic thought to your own decisions in business, work and life
  • Identify the key strategic lessons from The Iliad, The Odyssey and Thucydides
  • Apply the strategies of comparative advantage, backward induction, tradeoffs, scarcity and value to your own decision-making
  • Explain to others the strategic choices faced by Odysseus and how they apply to modern strategic thought
