Reflexive Games in Management
autor: Andrew Schumann,
In this paper reflexive games are defined as a way to act beyond equilibria to
control our opponents by our hiding motives. The task of a reflexive game is to
have the opponent’s actions become transparent for us, while our actions remain
obscure for the competitor. In case a reflexive game is carried out between agents
belonging to the same organisation (corporation, company, institute), success in a
reflexive game can be reached by a purposeful modification of some components
of a controlled system. Such a modification for the guaranteed victory in a
reflexive game is called reflexive management. This kind of management uses
reflexive games to control a knowledge structure of agents in a way their actions
unconsciously satisfy the centre’s goals.
