THE CASE
The case traces the founding and rapid growth of Facebook, a company hosting social networking by the same name.

Some of the issues that he had to deal with were developing an organization structure, constructing a management team, developing the core values of the company, addressing privacy concerns, and finally, keeping ahead of the many emerging competitors in the nascent industry. One of the biggest decisions had been to raise finances without giving up too much ownership to early stage investors.

What if Xerox pays no
dividends?
Advances in IT and Granular approach to dramatically growth
-Digging deeply the global market into micro markets; categorizing the
global market to hundreds of micro segments
-- Taking more rational and more rewarding investment decision
Granular approach and 2 dimensions to seize market
Portfolio momentum Mergers and acquisitions Market share gains1st dimension:
• Granular approach looks at portfolio momentum of market in extremely fine detail, It divides the
business into geographic, customer and business slices and can make up to 4000 pockets
3. 2d dimension in
granular approach
to seize the
market: Company performance; the use of MRI tool
The conceptual of MRI approach is to find the relationship between shareholder value creation and
three market potential components; which are Portfolio momentum, Mergers and acquisitions,
Market share gains.
Xerox can benchmark net growth rating of each fine segment to the net growth rating of related
industry thus finding areas of weak and strong growth and quickly point to priorities for investment
and divestment.
The power of MRI is because of granularity. It is possible to analyse thousand of fine segments of
market to get extremely detail data to find out areas of opportunity based on region and type of
business.
Xerox will need a big team to implement granular approach
Xerox needs to develop responsibility for the pursuit of fine- grained opportunities to its
200 plus top leaders and all these leaders have to be well trained about granular
approach.
