Case Analysis Format 1. Title of Case a. Author of t.docx
- 1. Case Analysis Format 1. Title of Case a. Author of the written case b. Your name c. Date 2. Executive Summary (5-6 sentences. Summarize situation. What is the name of the company, what do they do? What is the problem definition? What are your recommendations? 3. Introduction (Describe the company) 4. Background (Give the historical event review. Only use relevant events. Explain why these are relevant to the case analysis.) 5. Problem Definition (2-3 sentences) 6. Top Management Team (Give degrees, universities, majors, prior work experience, awards, titles, basically describe the credentials of these
- 2. people.) 7. Competitors (List the competitors and define how they compete with the company being analyzed. What products, services, ranking in industry…are competing?) 8. Discussion a. Analysis (Use only those parts of these tools that are relevant to the case.). Provide your own interpretation to the results of analysis from each tool. i. SWOT ii. PESTEL iii. Porters 5 Forces iv. Porters Diamond v. VRIO vi. Financials / Ratios (Always compare something to something relevant, such as competitors or years. Explain why you choose to compare against which companies over which years. Add your interpretation of the compared numbers. This tool can be the most revealing and

How much will your recommendations impact the firm? b. Are they feasible? c. Which recommendations did firm follow? 12. Conclusion Comments: Critical Thinking is a very important skill in business. Critical thinking involves understanding what key factors are important in a situation, using these factors in an appropriate analysis, using the results of the analysis to build an argument, then presenting your conclusions and recommendations based on the analysis results and your argument development. Everything
- 4. should flow logically, one stage to the next. Do not put information in the report that does not relate to the Conclusion. Managers today have little time for in-depth reading. To get your point across, use formatting to help you organize your thoughts and allow managers to be selective in what parts of your report that they read. Start with an Executive Summary that includes a synopsis of the situation, analysis results, and your recs. Don’t force your reader to read your whole report in order to understand your ideas. Follow with a concise Introduction, Background, Problem Definition, Analysis, Results, Discussion, Recommendations, and Conclusion. The key here is to effectively and efficiently communicate your analysis of the situation. Left justify unless you are an artsy type and you want a stylish presentation.
