內容大綱
This experiential exercise is designed to teach students how joint ventures can entail inherent tensions that resemble a real-world prisoner's dilemma. In the context of a (hypothetical) international collaboration in the global bicycle industry, students are put in the position of the parent firms' decision-makers and must decide between accessing the other's knowledge versus wanting to acquire (i.e., own) it. Students are thereby incentivized to act in self-interest, which ultimately leads to worse outcomes than if they had acted in the interest of the group. The exercise provides a lively, visceral learning experience and is complemented with an in-depth discussion of assumptions and implications as described in this teaching note.
