Description for case is given below :
MapQuest is a leading provider of mapping services and destination information as well as a publisher of maps, atlases, and other guides. On the Internet, it provides these products and services both to consumers directly and to other businesses, enabling these businesses to provide location, mapping, and destination information to their own customers. The company completed a successful initial public offering five years ago and was in a strong competitive position. However, the markets allowed competitors to get funding quickly in both private and public deals. In addition, there were perceptions of a general stock market bubble for technology companies. The CEO wanted to consider the available options and present a recommendation to the board. Possible options included: splitting the firm’s old and new-line business units, raising capital to fund an acquisition strategy, forging a set of alliances, focusing on organic growth, and pursuing the sale of the firm.

Plagiarism : NO (100% Original work)
Description for case is given below :
CQUAY Technologies Corp. was a privately held Canadian software company with offices in Toronto, Calgary, and Washington, D.C. CQUAY marketed a patented location intelligence engine called Common Ground. The company’s technology was designed for an emerging, multibillion dollar segment of the spatial information management market. A year earlier, the board had asked the CEO to shape the company into an acquisition target over the next 18 to 24 months. A year later, there were no imminent acquisition discussions, and recent customer traction and the sales pipeline seemed to merit raising growth capital instead of following the acquisition-focused plan. The CEO wanted to keep his stockholders and board happy by executing the plan they had given him, but without jeopardizing possible customer growth. Refocusing the plan might change acquisition opportunities. Without further contracts, the existing cash would sustain the company for only another six to eight months. The CEO thought the most likely outcome was to sell the company, but he needed to make the company more attractive. He planned to present options and a recommendation to the board of directors later that month.

At the end of 2001, the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC) and Barclays Bank PLC were in advanced negotiations regarding the potential merger of their respective retail, corporate, and offshore banking operations in the Caribbean. Some members of each board wondered whether this was the best direction to take. Would the combined company be able to deliver superior returns? Would it be possible to integrate, within budget, companies that had competed with each other in the region for decades? Would either firm be better off divesting regional operations instead? Should the two firms just continue to go it alone with emphasis on continual improvement? A decision needed to be made in the coming week.

Solution Sample availability : YES
Plagiarism : NO (100% Original work)
Description for case is given below :
In 1989, the government of the USSR appointed academician Abel Aganbegyan to the Academy of National Economy as rector. Since its foundation by the Soviet government in 1977, this educational institution educated several top managers for the Soviet economy. Since 1992, after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the start of democratic reforms, the academy started its own transformation to the business university. The academy is in the process of finding a new strategy direction for its further evolution. The school’s leadership must resolve both internal and external problems and stand up to the challenge of a competitive Russian business education market. The most significant issue for the academy’s leadership is to redefine its mission and status quo. There are three basic alternatives: continue being affiliated with the government elite state educational and scientific center with a group of relatively independent business schools; separate from these independent schools and restate its mission as a state educational and research institution affiliated with the government; or encourage the separation of the business schools and try to transform it into a Western-style business school.

Case ID :            W11469
Discipline :        Strategy
Case Length :    11 pages
Solution Sample availability : YES

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.
