The MBA students are in a capstone project-based course, designed for students in the final term of their MBA program. The course has a strong analytical, applied, and experiential orientation. Students work in groups of 4-5 to focus on a challenge/opportunity for the business. The students' process - and ultimate deliverable will include a current analysis of the business, problem or opportunity identification, research (as applicable), recommended solutions/strategy with implementation plan, budget and finally, risk identification and mitigation strategies (again, as applicable). The project can be for a Canadian business of any size, however enterprises run by solo-preneurs would probably not provide the necessary scope.

Hi What I can offer is to design your corporate strategy based on Roger Martin's model and his book "Playing to Win". This would require you to spend 2 to 4 meetings with the students to answer their questions. What you will get: Winning Aspiration : Defining a clear aspiration helps align the entire organization towards a shared goal, ensuring everyone works toward the same desired outcome. Where to Play : Identifying specific markets and segments to focus on helps the business allocate resources efficiently and avoid spreading itself too thin. How to Win : Crafting a distinct strategy for success in the chosen markets enables the business to differentiate itself from competitors. Capabilities : Building the right capabilities ensures the company has the necessary tools, skills, and systems to support and execute its strategy effectively. Management Systems : Implementing robust management systems guarantees that strategy execution is tracked, refined, and continuously aligned with the company’s goals.
