Games of Strategy

There are very few decisions that are made in isolation. Most decision environments are strategic settings, in the sense that the outcome for you depends not only on what you do but also on the actions of other individuals in the environment. Such settings may be cooperative or competitive, but a common factor is that decisions are interdependent: in order to determine your optimal decision, or strategy, you must consider how your adversaries will make their decisions, and understand that your adversaries will also be thinking about the actions that you might take. Games of strategy are ubiquitous throughout the corporate world, political environments, and in everyday life. Game Theory provides a framework within which such strategic situations can be modelled and analysed. Through studying Game Theory and learning how to think strategically you can better optimize your well-being by trying to outmanoeuvre your adversaries by recognizing the fact that they are trying to outmanoeuvre you. A world of strategic thinking awaits that will transform the way you think about making decisions!
