Summary
In this episode of Momentum Monday , I cover the unexpected power of game theory , not just for economists or chess players, but as a practical toolkit for smarter decisions in work, relationships, and personal habits. I break down three game-changing strategies: 1) Know Your "Game" (mapping players, rules, and payoffs) 2) Build Your BATNA (your secret weapon for negotiation leverage) 3) Tilt the Game in Your Favor (shaping interactions for win-win outcomes) Whether you're negotiating a raise, handling a tough conversation, or just trying to stick to your gym routine, these tactics will help you design your environment for success . Learn more about game theory's real-world applications here and how to apply BATNA in negotiations here . What You'll Learn: How to map your interactions like a game, identifying players, rules, and payoffs to make smarter decisions. (Source: Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy ) Why BATNA (Best Alternative To a Negotiated Agreement) is your negotiation superpower, and how to build one. (Source: Harvard PON ) How to shape your environment and incentives to tilt outcomes in your favor, even in everyday situations.
