授業の概要 Course Overview
Misson Statementとの関係性 / Connection to our Mission Statement
授業の目的（意義） / Importance of this course
Students will need to fulfill the requirements of completing their business case and insight notes through this course. The case study should reflect any chosen organizationʼs perspective as well as their own, showing the challenges/issues/opportunities faced by decision-maker(s) (also known as the case protagonist) while laying out a factual story about the situation. Insight note will include the case synopsis, its learning objectives, as well as the case questions, and most importantly, the framework and strategic solutions to these questions through the studentʼs unique perspective while being based on the underlying theory. Ultimately, the insight note should be able to serve as a teaching note if this case was to be used as a teaching material by an instructor in a class.
Seminar instructor will play the role of Case Advisor, whose main responsibility is to teach students on how to develop a full original case accompanied with an insight note. Throughout the seminars and upon submission, the Case Advisor will give feedback as to what kind of improvements can be carried out and will be also part of the panel for both midterm and final presentations. While the Case Advisor would remain the primary seminar instructor, all students will be required to participate actively by giving secondary advice to other classmates based on their own expertise and background.
