This was the 3rd annual McGill MBA Case Competition. Students were assigned into group of 3 or 4 and given the case at 16.30 and had to prepare a business case and 20 minute presentation for delivery at 12 midday the following day. 11 experienced judges were brought in to evaluate the presentations for both content and delivery. The 9 teams were split into 3 divisions and the the finalists from each division presented again in front of all judges and classmates. Amid very strong competition our team was graciously awarded 1st place. The keys to success were a solid business case that addressed the needs of the business beyond the implied scope and organized, convincing delivery that addressed both quantitative and emotional needs. What facilitated this success was the complimentary skills of the team members, flexible teamwork to drive towards the same goal, and the effective use of collaborative technology in creating the presentation.
