Your Career is a Game

There is a goal – a way to win:

 A series of moves are made in pursuit of the goal.

 A defined field of play.

 Play is governed by rules players may follow.

 A number of players and other actors can impact play.

But What is Game Theory?

Your BEST move now depends on what you know about what OTHERS

have done and will do!
