Training Philosophy and Methods

Our Trainers

The Science of Strategy Institute is led by its founder, Gary Gagliardi, the world’s leading authority in the strategic principles of Sun Tzu’s The Art of War. The Institute has a growing number of trainers all over the world who are handpicked by Gary. They are guided by our Master Trainers, who run independent local branches of the Science of Strategy Institute. Our other trainers all come to us from business and business training backgrounds from around the world and have demonstrated proficiency in understanding and communicating the principles of front-line strategy.

Founder

Gary Gagliardi
Founder - CEO
Science of Strategy Institute International
(Seattle, WA)

From his background as a founder and CEO of an Inc. 500 software company, Mr. Gagliardi has thirty years of experience teaching the principles of classical, front-line strategy. He is an award-winning author whose books have been translated around the world.   In the last five years, ten of his books on strategy have won award-recognition from a variety of different organizations. In developing the Institute's training, he has worked personally with some of the world's largest organizations in the world on front-line strategic issues. He is recognized as the world's leading authority on Sun Tzu's The Art of War.

Because of the demands on his schedule, Mr. Gagliardi no longer provides regular training sessions himself, but he does regularly offer keynote addresses on classical front-line strategy at public and private events around the world.

Master Trainers

The Master Trainers who manage our local training operations are independent businesspeople. Prior to joining us, our Masters worked in a wide variety of other business training programs. Their years of prior experience in corporate training created their desire to teach the types of competitive skills that are increasingly desperately needed in today’s organizations, rather than more traditional training.

These Masters all came to the Science of Strategy Institute with successful backgrounds in both business and business training. Our focus on front-line strategy is important and exciting, and no one else in the world is doing it.
