STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT
(HOW TO GET THE MOST FROM
CASE ANALYSIS)
By
Veni Paladagu - 1434
INTRODUCTION
Case analysis simulates the real-world experience that strategic
managers and company leaders face as they try to determine how best to
run their companies
The purpose of case analysis is to diagnose problems and find solutions.
 Case analysis forces you to choose among different options and set forth
a plan of action based on your choices
Analyze strategic management cases to develop an ability
to evaluate business situations critically
The types of skills that are required to prepare an effective strategic case
analysis can benefit you in actual business situations.
Therefore, to get the most out of case analysis, expand your horizons
beyond the concepts in this text and seek insights from your own reservoir
of knowledge. Here are some ways for how to do that,
 Keep an open mind.
 Take a stand for what you believe.
 Draw on your personal experience.
 Participate and persuade.
 Be concise and to the point.
 Think out of the box.
 Draw insights from others.
