Initiative in a chess position belongs to the player who can make threats that cannot be ignored, thus putting the opponent in the position of having to spend turns responding to threats rather than creating new threats.
Initiative is a global media planning and buying agency that is part of IPG Mediabrands, the media buying arm of multinational holding company Interpublic Group of Companies.
In most tabletop role-playing games, an initiative system determines in which order player characters and non-player characters take their actions, to avoid confusion on when a character gets to act.
