Dear colleague
Welcome to the September issue of Connect!
In our first featured case, the largest construction group in Kazakhstan attempts to grow and expand internationally. We stay in the same region for the second featured case, as IKEA’s move into Russia at the start of the millennium is explored.
In the remaining two featured cases, we look at the London Metropolitan Police’s stop and search measures amid the COVID outbreak, and an Australian entrepreneur trying to break the North American market with her interactive storytelling app.
Elsewhere, 100 years after the first case was used at Harvard Business School, we speak with experts from around the world about what makes a good case. We also bring you news about our exciting new website.
Karthik Ramanna, Professor of Business and Public Policy at the Blavatnik School of Government, University of Oxford, is the latest person to sit in the ‘5 minutes with…’ hotseat.
Stay safe and healthy!

| Hear from our 2021 Outstanding Case Teacher winner, LUSEM's Mats Urde, as he discusses all things the case method with Richard McCracken, The Case Centre Director. Watch here. |

“I was concerned not to lose the momentum of the class but in practice the breaks, coupled with a suggestion to think about a particular issue during the pause, worked really well, with students often returning to the online session with completely fresh questions to contribute to the case discussion.” – David S Lee, HKU Business School.

|
“Identify a true need in the market, pilot the case on various audiences before writing its final version, and write a teaching note as comprehensive as you would like to get yourself with a case.” – Ciaran Heavey and Dorota Piaskowska, UCD Michael Smurfit Graduate Business School. See more. |
