Process
What is & what work goes into a strategy & solutions case?

1. Problem Identification: The first step is to clearly identify the problem or challenge. This could be a real-world issue or a hypothetical scenario provided as part of a case study.

2. Analysis: Once the problem is defined, an analysis is conducted to gather relevant data, facts, & context. This may involve researching the industry, market trends, competitors, & other relevant information.

3. Strategy Development: Based on the analysis, a strategy is developed. This strategy outlines the high-level approach or plan for addressing the problem or seizing the opportunity. It might involve setting goals, determining key initiatives, & outlining a roadmap.

4. Solution Generation: Within the strategy, specific solutions or tactics are proposed. These solutions should be actionable & aligned with the overall strategy. They may involve marketing campaigns, operational changes, financial adjustments, or other actions.

5. Implementation Plan: A well-thought-out plan for implementing the solutions is crucial. This plan should include timelines, responsible individuals or teams, resource allocation, & a monitoring & evaluation process.

6. Risk Assessment: It's important to consider potential risks & challenges associated with the strategy & solutions. A risk assessment helps in preparing for unforeseen obstacles & mitigating them.

7. Financial Projections: In many cases, a financial aspect is involved. This includes cost estimates for implementing the solutions & projections of potential returns on investment.

8. Recommendations: The case should conclude with clear & justified recommendations. These recommendations are the result of the strategy & solutions developed throughout the case.

9. Presentation: In many cases, the individual or team working on the case is required to present their findings, strategy, & recommendations to an audience. This could be a class, a panel of experts, or organizational leadership.

Overall, a strategy & solutions case is a structured way to work through complex problems or opportunities by applying analytical thinking, strategic planning, & solution development to reach actionable recommendations.
