This half-term course examines the choices that we make which affect others and the choices others make that affect us. Such situations are known as “games” and game-playing, while sounding whimsical, is serious business. Managers frequently play “games” both within the firm and outside it – with competitors, customers, regulators, and even capital markets! The goal of this course is to enhance a student’s ability to think strategically in complex, interactive environments.
