Case in Point: Case Competition
Creating Winning Strategy Presentations for Case Competitions and Job Offers
The must-have guide to transform classroom knowledge into high-impact wins.
Why is the case method so important? It teaches emerging leaders how to analyze a situation—how to diagnose a problem, formulate a recommendation, present it effectively, and gain approval from top executives. In fact, the case method is one of the most productive frameworks you can leverage for success. The Amazon reviews say it all:
★★★★★
The best way to stand out among a pool of elite MBA students is to dominate the details, and this is where this book thrives.
★★★★★
Read this before your first case competition!
★★★★★
As a professor, former consultant, and someone who has served as a judge for dozens of case competitions, I could not recommend this book more highly. This past semester I made the book required reading in my management consulting course. It’s more than a book about how to win case competitions. It’s a book about how to present a coherent, data driven (yet cognitively digestible), strategic recommendation to a group of busy (often distracted) senior level executives.
In this valuable guide, Cosentino collaborates with two “case competition geniuses” (Google) and “the ultimate case competition gurus” (ExxonMobil) — Kara Kravetz Cupoli and Jason Rife. Altogether, you get the frameworks and advice you need to apply the case method for your greatest wins.
