What is Harvard Business School (HBS) Case Method

Harvard Business School (HBS) Case Method, a renowned approach to business education, using business case studies in the field of marketing, sales, leadership, technology, finance, enterpreneurship, human resources, and more .

Core Principles:

  • Real-World Dilemmas: HBS cases delve into genuine business challenges faced by companies, exposing students to the complexities and uncertainties of real-world decision-making.
  • Active Participation: Students are not passive recipients of knowledge. The case method emphasizes active participation through case discussions, fostering critical thinking and analysis.
  • Developing Judgment: There are often no single “correct” answers in case studies. The focus is on developing sound judgment by weighing evidence, considering various perspectives, and making well-supported recommendations.
  • Diversity and Collaboration: Diverse backgrounds and experiences enrich case discussions. Students learn from each other as they analyze the case from different viewpoints.

Structure and Implementation:

  • Pre-Class Preparation: Effective case study learning hinges on thorough preparation. Students are expected to read and analyze the case beforehand, identifying key issues, conducting research, and formulating potential solutions.
  • Case Discussion: The case discussion in class is the heart of the method. The instructor facilitates a dynamic discussion, encouraging active participation from all students.
  • Open-Ended Questions: Instead of spoon-feeding answers, instructors pose open-ended questions that stimulate critical thinking and analysis.
  • Cold Calling: The HBS method is known for its “cold calling” technique, where professors randomly call on students to respond, promoting active engagement and preparation.
  • Socratic Dialogue: Instructors often employ the Socratic method, asking probing questions to challenge assumptions, encourage deeper analysis, and draw out student reasoning.

Benefits of the HBS Case Method:

  • Develops Critical Thinking Skills: Grappling with complex business problems and analyzing diverse perspectives strengthens critical thinking abilities.
  • Enhances Communication Skills: Active participation and clear articulation of ideas within case discussions hone communication skills.
  • Sharpens Analytical Abilities: Students learn to dissect complex situations, identify key drivers, and weigh evidence effectively.
  • Promotes Decision-Making Confidence: The case method fosters the ability to make well-reasoned decisions under uncertainty.
  • Builds Leadership Skills: Active participation in discussions and persuasively advocating for solutions develops leadership potential.
  • Prepares Students for Real-World Business: The case method equips students with the knowledge and skills to navigate the complexities of real-world business environments.

Key Components of a Harvard Case Study Solution

Comprehensive Understanding of the Case

  • Summary of the Case : Provide a concise summary that outlines the key issues, stakeholders, and objectives. This sets the stage for deeper analysis.

Detailed Analysis

  • Quantitative Analysis : Use data and financial metrics to analyze the business performance. This includes profit margins, cost structures, revenue streams, and other relevant financial indicators.
  • SWOT Analysis : Conduct a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis to provide a structured view of the internal and external factors affecting the business.

Strategic Alternatives

  • Generation of Alternatives : Develop multiple strategic alternatives to address the identified problem. Each alternative should be feasible and align with the company’s goals and resources.
  • Evaluation of Alternatives : Assess each alternative based on criteria such as cost, feasibility, impact, and alignment with the company’s strategic objectives. Use quantitative data where possible to support the evaluation.

Recommended Solution

  • Selection of the Best Alternative : Choose the most viable solution from the generated alternatives. Justify the choice with clear, logical reasoning and supporting evidence.
  • Implementation Plan : Develop a detailed implementation plan that includes steps, timelines, resources required, and potential risks. This ensures the recommended solution is actionable and practical.
  • Contingency Plan : Outline a contingency plan to address potential challenges or risks that may arise during the implementation phase.

Reflection and Learning

  • Lessons Learned : Reflect on the case study process and the key lessons learned. This includes insights into decision-making, strategic thinking, and the application of business concepts.

Custom Case Study Writing Service Process | Affordable

The case study writing process at Fern Fort University is meticulously designed to ensure clients receive comprehensive, high-quality solutions tailored to their specific needs. Below is a detailed breakdown of the process:

Step 1: Fill the Form and Upload Guidelines

The first step involves clients filling out a detailed form to provide necessary information about their case study solution needs. This form includes fields for essential details such as the topic, objectives, scope, and any specific guidelines or instructions that need to be followed. Uploading comprehensive guidelines is crucial as it sets the foundation for a well-aligned and accurate case study solution. This ensures that the case study writer fully understands the client’s requirements and expectations from the outset.

Step 2: Upload the Case Study PDF

Once the guidelines are uploaded, clients are required to upload the case study PDF. This document contains the case study that needs to be analyzed and solved. Providing the case study in its PDF format allows the writer to thoroughly review and understand the context, background, and specifics of the problem at hand. This step ensures that the writer has all the necessary materials to begin the in-depth analysis.

Step 3: Converse with the Case Study Solution Writer

After the initial submission of guidelines and the case study, the next step involves direct communication between the client and the case study solution writer. This conversation is pivotal as it allows for clarification of any ambiguities and discussion of project deliverables. The writer can ask questions to gain a deeper understanding of the client’s needs, while the client can provide additional insights or preferences. This step ensures that both parties are on the same page and that the writer can tailor the analysis and solution to meet the client’s exact expectations.

Step 4: Delivery of the Case Study Solution

Upon completion of the analysis and drafting of the case study solution, the writer delivers the final product to the client. The delivery includes a comprehensive report that outlines the problem, detailed analysis, proposed solutions, and actionable recommendations. The case study solution is presented in a clear, structured format that is easy to understand and implement. This step marks the culmination of the writer’s efforts and provides the client with a well-crafted solution that addresses all the guidelines and expectations .

Step 5: Improvements (If Required)

After the delivery of the case study solution, clients have the opportunity to review the document and request any necessary improvements. This step ensures that the final product meets the client’s satisfaction and adheres to all specified requirements. The writer makes the required adjustments based on the client’s feedback, fine-tuning the analysis and recommendations as needed. This iterative process guarantees that the case study solution is of the highest quality and fully aligned with the client’s expectations.

Importance of Each Step in the Process

Filling the form and uploading guidelines.

This initial step is critical as it sets the direction for the entire project. Clear and detailed guidelines ensure that the writer understands the scope, objectives, and specific requirements, reducing the risk of misalignment and ensuring a focused approach.

Uploading the Case Study PDF

porter’s five forces model

These forces refers to micro environment and the company ability to serve its customers and make a profit. These five forces includes three forces from horizontal competition and two forces from vertical competition. The five forces are discussed below:

  • THREAT OF NEW ENTRANTS:
  • as the industry have high profits, many new entrants will try to enter into the market. However, the new entrants will eventually cause decrease in overall industry profits. Therefore, it is necessary to block the new entrants in the industry. following factors is describing the level of threat to new entrants:
  • Barriers to entry that includes copy rights and patents.
  • High capital requirement
  • Government restricted policies
  • Switching cost
  • Access to suppliers and distributions
  • Customer loyalty to established brands.
  • THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES:
  • this describes the threat to company. If the goods and services are not up to the standard, consumers can use substitutes and alternatives that do not need any extra effort and do not make a major difference. For example, using Aquafina in substitution of tap water, Pepsi in alternative of Coca Cola. The potential factors that made customer shift to substitutes are as follows:
  • Price performance of substitute
  • Switching costs of buyer
  • Products substitute available in the market
  • Reduction of quality
  • Close substitution are available
  • DEGREE OF INDUSTRY RIVALRY:

  • Competitive advantage
  • Continuous innovation
  • Sustainable position in competitive advantage
  • Level of advertising
  • Competitive strategy
  • BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS:
  • it deals with the ability of customers to take down the prices. It mainly consists the importance of a customer and the level of cost if a customer will switch from one product to another. The buyer power is high if there are too many alternatives available. And the buyer power is low if there are lesser options of alternatives and switching. Following factors will influence the buying power of customers:
  • Bargaining leverage
  • Switching cost of a buyer
  • Buyer price sensitivity
  • Competitive advantage of company’s product
  • BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIERS:
  • this refers to the supplier’s ability of increasing and decreasing prices. If there are few alternatives o supplier available, this will threat the company and it would have to purchase its raw material in supplier’s terms. However, if there are many suppliers alternative, suppliers have low bargaining power and company do not have to face high switching cost.

The author of this theory suggests that firm must be valuable, rare, imperfectly imitable and perfectly non sustainable. Therefore there must be some resources and capabilities in an organization that can facilitate the competitive advantage to company. The four components of VRIO analysis are described below: VALUABLE: the company must have some resources or strategies that can exploit opportunities and defend the company from major threats. If the company holds some value then answer is yes. Resources are also valuable if they provide customer satisfaction and increase customer value. This value may create by increasing differentiation in existing product or decrease its price. Is these conditions are not met, company may lead to competitive disadvantage. Therefore, it is necessary to continually review the Napo Pharmaceuticals company’s activities and resources values. RARE: the resources of the Napo Pharmaceuticals company that are not used by any other company are known as rare. Rare and valuable resources grant much competitive advantages to the firm. However, when more than one few companies uses the same resources and provide competitive parity are also known as rare resources. Even, the competitive parity is not desired position, but the company should not lose its valuable resources, even they are common. COSTLY TO IMITATE : the resources are costly to imitate, if other organizations cannot imitate it. However, imitation is done in two ways. One is duplicating that is direct imitation and the other one is substituting that is indirect imitation.  Any firm who has valuable and rare resources, and these resources are costly to imitate, have achieved their competitive advantage. However, resources should also be perfectly non sustainable. The reasons that resource imitation is costly are historical conditions, casual ambiguity and social complexity. ORGANIZED TO CAPTURE VALUE : resources, itself, cannot provide advantages to organization until it is organized and exploit to do so. A firm (like Napo Pharmaceuticals)  must organize its management systems, processes, policies and strategies to fully utilize the resource’s potential to be valuable, rare and costly to imitate.

STEP 8: Generating Alternatives For Napo Pharmaceuticals Case Solution:

  • as the problem and its solution cannot occur at the same time, it should be described as mutually exclusive
  • it is not possible for a company to not to take any action, therefore, the alternative of doing nothing is not viable.
  • Student should provide more than one decent solution. Providing two undesirable alternatives to make the other one attractive is not acceptable.

Once the alternatives have been generated, student should evaluate the options and select the appropriate and viable solution for the company.

STEP 9: Selection Of Alternatives For Napo Pharmaceuticals Case Solution:

  • Brand image
  • Corporate mission, vision and strategy

Napo Pharmaceuticals: Triple Bottom Line of People, Planet, and Profits Case Study Solution

Introduction

Napo pharmaceutical was founded in 1989 by Conte. It is a privately held biotechnology company in South San Francisco. The Napo pharmaceutical is more focused towards social change as compared to continuous product innovation like shaman pharmaceutical. The business model of Napo covers every country, every population and every channel of the distribution, irrespective of their socio-economic nature. (Haas, 2017)

Case Discussion Questions

Q-1: Why are so few biotech firms working on neglected diseases?

There are few biotech firms working on neglected diseases like diarrheal, infectious diarrhoea, HIV/AIDs related diarrhoea and irritable bowel syndrome, because many commercial drug makers do not focus on these health related issues due to several reasons. The public or even philanthropic investment hesitate to invest in developing markets because of being afraid to get lower returns from the new products. (Kiran, 2009). There are 3 main reasons that prevent the biotech firms to work on neglected diseases. Firstly, rare existence of profitable market, which could generate higher returns for them and justify their investments. Secondly, financing could be the bigger issue,fearing which the investors are not ready to compensate their risk.Lastly, most companies face the information barriers, as they are unaware of the medical practices and pharmaceutical distribution in the emerging economies. (Kremer, 2002) (See Appendix 1)

Q-2: What is the difference between Napo’s model and the typical biotech? What do you think of Napo’s business model?

A typical biotech business model focuses on venture capital financing and higher profits. The typical biotech companies are interested to invest in the developed countries, from where they can get higher returns and have lower chances of being faced with huge risks. The Napo’s business model covers both the developed and currently developing countries. It focuses on every country, population and channel of distribution, irrespective of their economical state. The Napo’s business model dictates vast area for drug discovery and innovation as their competitive advantage. (Taylor, 2010)I think Napo’s business model is quite appropriate as compared to the typical biotech companies, because Napo strives to cure those diseasesthat are  major causes of death in adults and children by introducing and producing new drugs, for which it gets FDA’s approval foras well. (Jayasuriya, 1985)…………………………..

Napo pharmaceuticals description.

Chronicles entrepreneur Lisa Conte's two ventures, Shaman Pharmaceuticals and Napo Pharmaceuticals. Shaman was formed to make drug discovery and development more efficient by studying traditional, indigenous healers in the tropics. Shaman had identified a promising compound that came to be known as crofelemer. For a variety of complex reasons, Shaman declared bankruptcy, and Napo, Conte's new company established specifically for this purpose, bought Shaman's library of compounds, including crofelemer. At the time of the case study, Napo was developing the compound for sale in large western markets while arranging an innovative public-private partnership to develop and distribute crofelemer in the developing world. In developing countries, the compound would treat diarrhea, which kills over 2.5 million children every year. However, the public-private partnership proved difficult to arrange. Concludes with Conte deciding whether to proceed with the partnership that would not only save the lives of children, but also provide much-needed capital to keep Napo in business.

Political Factors that Impact Napo Pharmaceuticals

Political factors impact seven key decision making areas – economic environment, socio-cultural environment, rate of innovation & investment in research & development, environmental laws, legal requirements, and acceptance of new technologies.

Government policies have significant impact on the business environment of any country. The firm in “ Napo Pharmaceuticals ” needs to navigate these policy decisions to create either an edge for itself or reduce the negative impact of the policy as far as possible.

Data safety laws – The countries in which Napo Shaman is operating, firms are required to store customer data within the premises of the country. Napo Shaman needs to restructure its IT policies to accommodate these changes. In the EU countries, firms are required to make special provision for privacy issues and other laws.

Import restrictions on products – Before entering the new market, Napo Shaman in case study Napo Pharmaceuticals" should look into the import restrictions that may be present in the prospective market.

Export restrictions on products – Apart from direct product export restrictions in field of technology and agriculture, a number of countries also have capital controls. Napo Shaman in case study “ Napo Pharmaceuticals ” should look into these export restrictions policies.

Foreign Direct Investment Policies – Government policies favors local companies over international policies, Napo Shaman in case study “ Napo Pharmaceuticals ” should understand in minute details regarding the Foreign Direct Investment policies of the prospective market.

Corporate Taxes – The rate of taxes is often used by governments to lure foreign direct investments or increase domestic investment in a certain sector. Corporate taxation can be divided into two categories – taxes on profits and taxes on operations. Taxes on profits number is important for companies that already have a sustainable business model, while taxes on operations is far more significant for companies that are looking to set up new plants or operations.

Tariffs – Chekout how much tariffs the firm needs to pay in the “ Napo Pharmaceuticals ” case study. The level of tariffs will determine the viability of the business model that the firm is contemplating. If the tariffs are high then it will be extremely difficult to compete with the local competitors. But if the tariffs are between 5-10% then Napo Shaman can compete against other competitors.

Research and Development Subsidies and Policies – Governments often provide tax breaks and other incentives for companies to innovate in various sectors of priority. Managers at Napo Pharmaceuticals case study have to assess whether their business can benefit from such government assistance and subsidies.

Consumer protection – Different countries have different consumer protection laws. Managers need to clarify not only the consumer protection laws in advance but also legal implications if the firm fails to meet any of them.

Political System and Its Implications – Different political systems have different approach to free market and entrepreneurship. Managers need to assess these factors even before entering the market.

Freedom of Press is critical for fair trade and transparency. Countries where freedom of press is not prevalent there are high chances of both political and commercial corruption.

Corruption level – Napo Shaman needs to assess the level of corruptions both at the official level and at the market level, even before entering a new market. To tackle the menace of corruption – a firm should have a clear SOP that provides managers at each level what to do when they encounter instances of either systematic corruption or bureaucrats looking to take bribes from the firm.

Independence of judiciary – It is critical for fair business practices. If a country doesn’t have independent judiciary then there is no point entry into such a country for business.

Government attitude towards trade unions – Different political systems and government have different attitude towards trade unions and collective bargaining. The firm needs to assess – its comfort dealing with the unions and regulations regarding unions in a given market or industry. If both are on the same page then it makes sense to enter, otherwise it doesn’t.

What is Regression Analysis – An Overview

Regression analysis is a widely used statistical tool that helps marketing, sales, human resources, and financial managers to infer relationship between a dependent variable and independent variable. For example sales of the product is dependent upon the advertising budget, number of sales people on the ground, number of distributors, retail outlets, and various other factors. Some of the factors contribute more to the sales number than others. The role of regression is to understand the relationship between the critical independent variables that are impacting the dependent variable. In statistical language – Regression Analysis aims to estimate the mathematical relation f() for explaining Y in terms of Y = f(X) , using the observations (xi, Yi) , i= 1,…,n, observed on n statistical units.

What are the two different categories of Regression Analysis Technique – Parametric and Non Parametric?

Regression analysis techniques for the Napo Pharmaceuticals: Triple Bottom Line of People, Planet, and Profits (A) case study solution can be organized into two categories: parametric and non-parametric. The non parametric technique do not assume a particular form for f(); while the parametic category is based on the assumption of knowing the relationship f() up to a fixed number of parameters β that need to be estimated from the observed data.

What is Simple Linear Regression? What is Multiple Regression? What is the difference between Simple Linear Regression and Multiple Regression?

Y = b0 + b1x + e ,, what is a deterministic regression model.

If we were to construct a regression model that hypothesized an exact relationship between variables, it would be called a deterministic model. The deterministic model implies that values of Y (independent variable) can be easily known if we know the value of x. There is no allowance of error in prediction in the deterministic model. But in business world unlike physics or natural sciences things don’t pan out this way. y = b0 + b1x + e In the above equation b0 and b1 are the deterministic component of y for every increase or decrease in 1 unit of x. b0 is the y intercept of the line and b1 is the slope of the line.

What is a Probabilistic Regression Model?

Y = 21x + random error, steps in regression analysis.

Step 1: Hypothesize the deterministic component of the Regression Model–Step one is to hypothesize the relationship between the independent variables and dependent variable.

Step 2: Use the sample data provided in the Napo Pharmaceuticals: Triple Bottom Line of People, Planet, and Profits (A) case study to estimate the strength of relationship between the independent variables and dependent variable.

Step 3: Evaluate the significance level. Based on the nature of the analysis the manager has to come up with a tolerable significance level.

Step 4: Statistically evaluate the usefulness of the model – That is basically assessing the R Square of the model.

Step 5: if the manager is satisfied with the usefulness of the model then she can use it for prediction, estimation and other business decision making purposes.

How do companies use Regression tool?

Regression analysis is one of the most simple and widely used tools in the corporate world. Companies use it for numerous purposes such as – hiring people, predicting sales and revenue, making marketing, advertising, and salesforce decisions, making project planning decisions etc.
