Complete Case details are given below :
Case Name :      National Australia Bank (B)
Authors :           Graham Hubbard, Judy Hubbard
Source :             Ivey Publishing
Case ID :            908M36
Discipline :        Strategy
Case Length :    13 pages
Solution Sample availability : YES
Plagiarism : NO (100% Original work)
Description for case is given below :
This is a chronological series of two cases. The (A) case is about the fall from grace of a revered, high-performing Australian company that had gone international in its quest for growth. The (B) case is about the turnaround that followed. The (A) case covers the period 2000 to 2004. It includes the National Australia Bank (NAB) 2000 corporate/business strategy, the MLC acquisition, the sale of Michigan National, the HomeSide financial disaster and consequent sale, and the 2003 foreign exchange trading disaster that ultimately led to recognition that NAB was truly in trouble. The (B) case is about the turnaround that followed. It covers the period 2004 to 2006, at which point the new chief executive office (CEO) declares that the three year turnaround is almost over and the new NAB is back in business. It covers the investigation of the foreign exchange trading scandal disaster, the changes in personnel in the top management team and the board, the introduction of new external people to support the new CEO and many other detailed events that took place as part of the turnover. The (A) case is primarily about implementation of strategy and the (B) case is primarily about implementation of strategy for a turnaround. Both cases are mainly corporate strategy cases, though they could be used in the business strategy section of a strategic management course, since the corporation is narrowly diversified and centrally controlled, so it acts like a business.

Case Name :      Nuway Software
Authors :           Derrick Neufeld, Ramasastry Chandrasekhar
Source :             Ivey Publishing
Case ID :            909E05
Discipline :        Strategy
Case Length :    15 pages
Solution Sample availability : YES
Plagiarism : NO (100% Original work)
Description for case is given below :
The founder and president of Nuway Software (Nuway) must determine the pricing strategy for their new internally-developed mobile software product, Nulogic. Nuway develops custom mobile software applications that provide great competitive advantage to each of their customers; no two software modules it develops are similar. Nuway is now ready to market Nulogic as a stand-alone product and has identified three unique customer segments: Corporate in-house developers, competitors and independent software developers. The company has historically followed a cost-plus pricing model and has maintained positive profit margins. The software industry as a whole is moving towards value-based pricing, where cost is based on perceived value to the customer. The president does not favor value-based pricing and views it as price-gouging; however, he is aware that cost-plus pricing has limitations with regards to cost accuracy. By considering the entire software industry, Nuway’s capabilities and his own preferences, the president must determine how to price the new software.

Complete Case details are given below :
Case Name :      Rogers Communications Inc.
Authors :           Ariff Kachra, Kevin Melhuish
Source :             Ivey Publishing
Case ID :            W11087
Discipline :        Strategy
Case Length :    28 pages
Solution Sample availability : YES
Plagiarism : NO (100% Original work)
Description for case is given below :
Rogers Communication’s new president and chief executive officer (CEO) contemplated the future growth opportunities of the company that he now controlled. The CEO was taking the reins of Rogers at a high point – it was a force to be reckoned with in all areas of the telecommunications sector including wireless, television, internet telephone and landline telephone. However, competition in the industry was also at an all-time high and innovations were abounding. The CEO knew that in order to successfully develop Rogers’ strategic direction for the future, he would have to make a number of tradeoffs that would require a strong understanding of the competitive landscape and the future of the industry. The case provides the following questions: (1) Can Rogers afford to be a leader in all four product areas: wireless, television, internet and landline telephone? (2) Should Rogers maintain the industry trend toward offering quadruple plays? (3) Where should it be willing to lead and where should it be willing to lag behind competitors? (4) Should Rogers think about its future as four (or less) distinct businesses or as one company? (5) Should Rogers think about entering markets in which it does not currently have a strong presence? (6) How do ancillary businesses such as media fit into Rogers’ future? (7) How much financial flexibility does Rogers have for enacting any future strategies? In making these tradeoffs, Rogers will have to explore its resource strengths and weaknesses: this will allow it to gain an in-depth understanding of its competitive advantage. Understanding its competitive advantage will help Rogers make decisions concerning future resource investments that will allow it to lead the industry. No matter which tradeoffs Rogers considers making, the results must help Rogers continue to outperform its competitors by maintaining net margins in the 20 per cent and greater range.

Case ID :            W11469
Discipline :        Strategy
Case Length :    11 pages
Solution Sample availability : YES
Plagiarism : NO (100% Original work)
Description for case is given below :
This exercise assesses one’s exposure to the rest of the world’s peoples. A series of worksheets require the respondents to check off the number and names of countries they have visited and the corresponding percentage of world population which each country represents. By summing a group’s collective exposure to the world’s people, the result will inevitably be the recognition that together they have seen much, even if individually some have seen little. The teaching note provides assignments and discussion questions which look at: why there is such a high variability in individual profiles; the implications of each profile for one’s business career; and, what it would take for the respondent to change his/her profile. For marketers, it underscores the need to gather greater base knowledge about opportunities abroad.

Description for case is given below :
Godrej, a Fast Moving Commercial Goods (FMCG) company in India, historically known for its refrigerators in the Indian market, contemplated launching a new product for rural markets. Chotukool was an unconventional cooling solution targeted at the bottom of the pyramid (BOP) segment in India. More than 80 percent of the population in India does not own refrigerators and 50 percent of the population earns less than US$2 per day. The study tracks Godrej’s journey of disruptive innovations from the conception of the idea to the marketing challenges faced by the company. It also focuses at length on how the organization plans to execute two parallel business models, one aimed at the consumers of traditional refrigerators while the other one simultaneously targets current non-consumers. The case focuses on the management challenge of innovating across the value chain in order to succeed at social innovations.

Case ID :            W11600
Discipline :        Strategy
Case Length :    06 pages

Description for case is given below :
DD Traders was the Asian branch of DEMDACO, a privately held company that wholesaled unique gift products, which were marketed and distributed to the specialty retail channel in the United States (as well as some international markets). Carolyn Glasow recognized an opportunity to leverage a quantitative approach to sourcing future allocations across vendors that would also improve the short-term demand transparency that was provided to the company’s key business partners, which could lead to increased bargaining power for price negotiations and production lead-times. This was a recurring issue for Glasow and her sourcing team: how should she allocate product purchases among the various manufacturers that bid for the opportunity to supply products to DD Traders?
