SUMMARY:IORA Seminar Series | 26 Feb | 10am
DESCRIPTION:Extensive research has shown that human decision makers in operations and supply chains are often influenced by cognitive biases and social preferences\, and as a consequence fail to achieve the optimal performance prescribed by normative operations theories.  In this talk\, we will discuss how behavioral factors affect decisions and economic outcomes in two operations management settings.  In the first setting\, we analyze how cognitive biases affect inventory decisions when biases are endogenously given in competition.  In the second setting\, we study how fairness and competition interact in a supply chain of one supplier and two retailers.  In both settings\, we find that the presence of competition can reverse the impact that the behavioral factors have on decision and performance in individual settings. \n  \n\n\n\nName of Speaker\n  \nA/P Wu Yaozhong \n \n\n\nSchedule \n  \nFriday 26 Feb 2021 \, 10am \n \n\n\nLink \nhttps://nus-sg.zoom.us/j/85139484987?pwd=TE1OMDNnSkwwNEwxQ2xjbTJ4MVQvUT09 \n\n\n\nJoin our Cloud HD Video Meeting \nZoom is the leader in modern enterprise video communications\, with an easy\, reliable cloud platform for video and audio conferencing\, chat\, and webinars across mobile\, desktop\, and room systems.
