Dynamic Coordination via Organizational Routines

Arbeitspapier

We investigate dynamic coordination among members of a problem solving team who receive private signals about which of their actions are required for a (static) coordinated solution and who have repeated opportunities to explore different action combinations. In this environment ordinal equilibria, in which agents condition only on how their signals rank their actions and not on signal strength, lead to simple patterns of behavior that have a natural interpretation as routines. These routine spartially solve the team's coordination problem by synchronizing the team's search efforts and prove to be resilient to changes in the environment by being expost equilibria, to agents having only a coarse understanding of other agents' strategies by being fully cursed, and to natural forms of agents' overcon?dence. The price of this resilience is that optimal routines are frequently not optimal equilibria.
