Evaluating prerequisites to collaborative strategic decisions : a simulated collaborative scenario of two actors
- 2004
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This paper conceptualizes different grounds for collaborative decisions in order to forecast how different behaviors behave in a game-theoretical prisoner's dilemma (PD). Forecasting is facilitated by a simulated scenario between two actors. The paper views consequences of different behavioral strategies and underpins an evaluation through analyses of the game, and also presents a unique aggregated analysis modeling strategic behavior on the basis of game-theory. The paper suggests that game-theory could be a potential and powerful tool for researchers and practitioners struggling with the strategic dilemmas, i.e. trust-building versus opportunistic behavior in inter-firm cooperation. The paper outlines some strategic principles that may unsettle the dilemma situation through either social or formal contracts.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Managers and owners of successful companies act with deliberate purpose in order to succeed (Penrose, 1959; Nelson and Winter, 1982; Aldrich and Zimmer, 1986; Edquist, 1997; Metcalfe, 1997). Understanding the issue of success and failure has received great interest among practitioners, policymakers and researchers. This study considers a region understood as a rural, sparsely populated area. In this region, traditional industries such as mining, agriculture and forest products are suffering under pressure for sustainable replacement industries. Reconstruction of such areas involves structural processes facilitating the entry of new industries, such as tourism (Petterson, 2002). The replacement industries often demand a shift in terms of tangible assets and also in terms of finding decision routines adapted to sensitive customer needs. In order to understand the complexity of this industrial shift, this paper intends to describe and explore (as moderators for understanding success) present decision routines in tourism industry, at three levels, and to chart the decision paths.
