Movie Based Case Studies

Continuing with its tradition of augmenting product base for MBA classrooms, IBSCDC has developed Movie-based case studies. These case studies, based on Hollywood blockbusters, can be used very effectively in regular MBA programs, Executive MBA Programs and Executive Development Programs. All these case studies have been tested in all these platforms at IBS. Woven around the respective film's content, these case studies offer rich learnings. Every case study is accompanied with a detailed and comprehensive teaching note that can help connect the film's underpinnings with the corporate settings. As the visual media is replacing all the other forms, IBSCDC would endeavor to bolster this activity with a desire to develop movie-based case studies spanning all the functional areas of management. Time and again it is proved very emphatically that the students' reflexes are distinctly fast when challenged with the visual media. To tap this powerful platform, IBSCDC attempts to convert Hollywood blockbusters in to management case studies.
