Microeconomic Tools for Strategy Research

This is a series of video lectures providing an introduction to microeconomic modeling. They include material I used in Ph.D. courses taught at the University of Toronto. They are aimed to be accessible to non-economists, although some basic knowledge of calculus and game theory may be useful to follow the material. The videos are low-tech because, when it comes to modeling, I love the traditional chalk and blackboard approach!

Video 1: Modeling innovation and property rights

Video 2: Modeling competitive advantage

Video 3: Modeling regional ecosystems

Video 4: Modeling entrepreneurship

Video 5: Modeling bargaining and negotiations

Video 6: Modeling CEOs and managers
