The Game of Golf and the Art of Business: Success On and Off the Course — Black Lake Press

Master the Mindset, Elevate Your Game

Black Lake Press presents The Game of Golf and the Art of Business: Success On and Off the Course, a narrative-driven guide that blends a high-stakes golf day with practical leadership insights. Centered on a dream day on Bethpage Black, the book follows Bob, a capable but imperfect golfer, and his seasoned mentor Scott Seifferlein as they unpack decision making, routines, and poise under pressure on the course and in the workplace.

What sets this work apart is its translation of on-course challenges into business-ready thinking. You’ll see how clear pre-shot thinking aligns with planning for pivotal meetings, negotiations, or product launches. You’ll discover how disciplined practice translates into consistency, and how maintaining composure helps you navigate mistakes without derailing a plan. The result is a framework you can adapt to real-world scenarios, not a rigid playbook.

Written for both golfers and non-golfers, the book distills Scott Seifferlein’s coaching wisdom into approachable, usable guidance. Expect practical tactics you can test today: mental models for risk assessment, checklists to tame chaos, and stories that illustrate how preparation reduces stress in high-stakes moments. The Bethpage Black setting becomes a relatable backdrop for teamwork, mentorship, and marketplace competition.
