Teaching
I created and taught an undergraduate Competitive Strategy course in the Spring of 2021 and 2022 as part of UChicago's new Business Economics specialization. The course applies microeconomics and game theory to analyze firm decision-making. It covers topics such as competitive advantage, entry, firm scope, and network effects. Class time is split between lectures, case discussions, and student presentations. Cases include Moneyball, The Cola Wars, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Walmart vs. Amazon, Ritz-Carlton, Ryanair, NUMMI, McDonald's, and Nintendo and Sega.
You can find my course materials on GitHub, including the syllabus.
