Syllabus

WEEK 1
Cuide dos seus concorrentes
Neste módulo, apresentamos os conceitos básicos da teoria de jogos e usamos jogos estratégicos para aprender sobre análise da concorrência. Respondemos “o que é uma estratégia” e analisamos modos diferentes de determinar a melhor estratégia, ou a dominante. Também discutimos os conceitos de equilíbrio de Nash e dilema do prisioneiro, e aprendemos que é importante antecipar e levar em consideração as ações de outros jogadores. Por fim, analisamos o que acontece quando mudamos o jogo de simultâneo (onde todos agem do mesmo modo) para sequencial (onde os jogadores se movem um depois do outro).

WEEK 2
Por que as empresas trabalham juntas
Segundo a teoria econômica, as empresas competem umas com as outras no mercado. Na realidade, elas costumam cooperar amistosamente umas com as outras. Neste módulo, tentamos entender essa estratégia, e por que isso é bom para as organizações envolvidas. Com isso, avaliamos os fatores que incentivam ou atrapalham a cooperação e os aplicaremos com diferentes exemplos.

WEEK 3
Produtos complementares e parcerias estratégicas
Neste módulo, apresentamos os complementos e discutimos o que eles significam para nós em termos econômicos. Estudamos por que as empresas gostam de vender seus produtos em pacote, e como a complementaridade cria custos de troca. Também discutimos a importância dessa coordenação entre as empresas com produtos complementares. Por fim, analisamos as parcerias estratégicas como ferramenta eficiente para alinhar os interesses das empresas nesse cenário específico.

WEEK 4
Entrando em um novo mercado
Este módulo aborda a entrada no mercado. Primeiro, analisaremos diferentes ferramentas para avaliar a atratividade de um mercado. Depois, falaremos sobre as estratégias que se mostraram úteis para entrar em um novo mercado, como estratégias de posicionamento e de marketing. Também consideraremos outra perspectiva e analisaremos o que empresas estabelecidas podem fazer para manter novos concorrentes fora do mercado.

WEEK 5
Por que se preocupar com pesquisa e desenvolvimento
No contexto de P&D, uma série de questões estratégicas importantes costuma vir à tona. Neste módulo, vamos analisar essas questões. Embora muitas inovações sejam criadas em um golpe de sorte, parece que a maioria das inovações é criada porque seus inventores se dedicaram a essa inovação específica e estratégia de diferenciação.

WEEK 6
Projetando produtos de modo inteligente
Neste módulo, nosso foco está nos aspectos estratégicos do projeto do produto e das estratégias de preços. Analisamos como as empresas podem ajustar seus produtos de modo a reduzir a pressão competitiva no mercado. Depois, analisamos algumas estratégias genéricas para projeto e precificação de produto, e discutimos problemas relacionados a ficar paralisado entre essas estratégias.
