subject: Combining Business with Pleasure [print this page] Many people start playing golf as a way to advance their career. It's difficult to know just how much it genuinely helps but it is certainly true that many companies hold golf days and being able to play feels like a requirement if you are going to be in a client facing position within a company. It is also true that many directors of small businesses find a good way to cement relationships is with half a day spent on the golf course followed by lunch (possibly a liquid one) in the clubhouse.
Thus the thrusting young businessman or woman finds themselves considering golf lessons. They quickly become hooked. Even a couple of hours on the range practicing your swing is immediately gratifying as you find yourself able to hit the ball further and further. Sometimes you even manage to hit it straight! Your golfing vocabulary starts to build as you discover what a slice and a hook shot are.
You then start to discover other people who are just starting and find yourself making new friends or getting closer to old ones as a round of golf becomes a regular feature of your weekend. Next thing you know, you're deciding on which golf club you should join. Then you become involved in the social side of the golf club, expanding your circle of would be opponents.
The inevitable happens. You start talking about golfing holidays. Maybe just you and your partner plan a trip to the Algarve. Perhaps it's a group of friends going to Spain. Whatever type of golf holidays you are interested in, you will find more and more of your spare time will be taken up looking at brochures and websites trying to find the best golf accommodation.
