hi sharat
Here are some of the tips on writing a case study
Read a case at your normal speed without stopping to take
notes. Read the assignment at the end of the case (if there is an
assignment), and then carefully read the entire case again,
taking notes in the margins as you read. You are trying to
identify problems in the case and formulate recommendations to
solve these problems, then prepare an outline with the following
four headings: Summary, Analysis, Recommendations, and
Implications.
As you write your case analysis, you must include
appropriate references to the assigned reading. Your references
should be in the following format: (Brandenburger & Nalebuff, 1996, p.
126)
1. Summary of the facts presented.
2. Analysis of the problems.
3. Recommendations for solutions to the problems.
4. Implications your recommendations will have on the operation
of the organization in the short and long term, and for
broader policy implications. In other words, if your
recommendations are implemented, what changes will the
organization have to make in the way it does things now and
in the future?
Begin your write-up with a synthesis of the facts in the
case in one or two brief paragraphs under the heading of Summary.
Do not put any discussion of problems or recommendations for
solutions in the Summary sectionit must be a brief summary of
just the facts in the case.
The most important section of your analysis comes next,
under the heading Analysis. This section should be the longest,
most thorough section. Managers cannot solve problems unless they
can first identify them. Recognizing that something is a problem
and then understanding the nature of the problem is the beginning
of all managerial wisdom. Solutions generally fall into place
relatively easily once the specific problem is understood
(precision in problem identification is vital). There are often
several viable solutions, but you cannot implement any of them if
you cannot identify the problem. It is critically important there
be references to the assigned reading in the Analysis section.
Your grade will depend, to a large degree, on how many
appropriate, logical references you include in your write-up.
Next, write your Recommendations as to how to solve the
problems. Put the solutions in order of priority. It is
critically important there be references to the assigned reading
in the Recommendations section. Your grade will depend, to a
large degree, on how many appropriate, logical,relevant references you
include in your write-up.
Finally, in a section headed Implications, you should write
what implications your solutions will have on the organization's
future. Include appropriate references in the Implications
section.
Even though this is not an English course, you are expected
to write in clear, concise, well-organized English. Be
particularly watchful for errors in spelling, especially, understand
the difference between "its" and "it's.
Hope this will help you out in analysing a case
with warm regards
