Question 1

What does a team look like?

Answer

Successful case competition teams must work together closely and intensely. Teams should be groups of 4-5 people from the same university (graduate students of which there is at least one MBA student) with varied expertise and experiences. It is important to get to know each other well and utilize strengths to execute tasks related to the challenge. Assigning roles and responsibilities thoughtfully, to ensure that the team can learn to communicate and collaborate virtually in the stressful case competition environment, can maximize the impact that a team is aiming for.

Question 2

What are the expectations from the teams?

Answer

One person per team must confirm participation for the semi-final and final. Teams will be notified of their selection for the semi-final case preparation on Oct 11th, 2020. Selection of teams is blinded and is based on whether the team has a strong understanding of the topic, knows individual strengths and gaps, and demonstrates the passion and commitment to envision an implementable solution. Shortlisted teams will have the opportunity to work on a real business challenge presented by Danaher Diagnostics and prepare a 5-minute video pitch which is due by Oct 30th 20:59 EST. On Nov 4, the final 9 teams will be shortlisted. Finalists will have a unique opportunity to present their solutions live on zoom to a panel of experts from Danaher Diagnostics on the day of the Competition, Nov. 6th.

Question 4

What platforms will be used for communication?

Zoom – For the second time, the Carey Business School Annual Case Competition is completely virtual and will be conducted via Zoom. We believe that Zoom provides us with features that will enable an easy and effective channel for teams and judges to interact. We recommend that every team member familiarizes themselves with Zoom prior to the event here

Slack – We wanted to provide finalist teams with an easy channel to communicate. This year, we will be using Slack to ensure a team always stays updated and can communicate with each other, and a case competition organizer, throughout the event. We recommend that every team member familiarizes themselves with Slack once shortlisted.
