Dividing Resources and Decision Making

The video explains the last diminisher method for dividing sales regions among four salespeople. Bob, the first player, slices off a region he values as a fair share. Henry, the next player, trims Bob's piece and claims it. Beth strategically trims another piece to claim it.
