Business Case Analysis with R: Simulation Tutorials To Support Complex Business Decisions
by Robert D. Brown IIIThis tutorial teaches you how to use the statistical programming language R to develop a business case simulation and analysis. It presents a methodology for conducting business case analysis that minimizes decision delay by focusing stakeholders on what matters most and suggests pathways for minimizing the risk in strategic and capital allocation decisions. Business case analysis, often conducted in spreadsheets, exposes decision makers to additional risks that arise just from the use of the spreadsheet environment. R has become one of the most widely used tools for reproducible quantitative analysis, and analysts fluent in this language are in high demand. The R language, traditionally used for statistical analysis, provides a more explicit, flexible, and extensible environment than spreadsheets for conducting business case analysis. The main tutorial follows the case in which a chemical manufacturing company considers constructing a chemical reactor and production facility to bring a new compound to market. There are numerous uncertainties and risks involved, including the possibility that a competitor brings a similar product online. The company must determine the value of making the decision to move forward and where they might prioritize their attention to make a more informed and robust decision. While the example used is a chemical company, the analysis structure it presents can be applied to just about any business decision, from IT projects to new product development to commercial real estate. The supporting tutorials include the perspective of the founder of a professional service firm who wants to grow his business and a member of a strategic planning group in a biomedical device company who wants to know how much to budget in order to refine the quality of information about critical uncertainties that might affect the value of a chosen product development pathway. What You’ll LearnSet up a business case abstraction in an influence diagram to communicate the essence of the problem to other stakeholdersModel the inherent uncertainties in the problem with Monte Carlo simulation using the R languageCommunicate the results graphicallyDraw appropriate insights from the resultsDevelop creative decision strategies for thorough opportunity cost analysisCalculate the value of information on critical uncertainties between competing decision strategies to set the budget for deeper data analysisConstruct appropriate information to satisfy the parameters for the Monte Carlo simulation when little or no empirical data are available Who This Book Is For Financial analysts, data practitioners, and risk/business professionals; also appropriate for graduate level finance, business, or data science students

Business Cases in der Hochschullehre: Eine Analyse des didaktischen Designs betriebswirtschaftlicher Fallstudien
by Christian HofmeisterDas Spannungsfeld zwischen praxisnaher und -ferner Studierendenausbildung ist ein wichtiges Thema der Managementlehre. Immer mehr Unternehmen erwarten von den Hochschulen eine hohe Anwendungsorientierung der Studieninhalte. Um neben der reinen Vermittlung von Fachinhalten eine ideale Berufsvorbereitung der Studierenden erreichen zu können, greifen Hochschullehrende zur Vermittlung berufsvorbereitender Kompetenzen vermehrt auf den Ansatz der Fallstudienmethode zurück. Dieser stellt praktische Erfahrungen, reale Probleme und Bedürfnisse sowie die Wirklichkeit von Unternehmensprozessen dar und ermöglicht den Studierenden einen aktiven Lernprozess. Durch die Methode sollen die Studierenden Anstöße zum reflexiven und entscheidungsorientierten Handeln bekommen. Obwohl der Fallstudieneinsatz in der Managementlehre bewährt ist, wurde die Frage danach, welche didaktischen Kriterien eine Fallstudie zur Erreichung der damit verfolgten Lehr-Lernziele erfüllen sollte, bislang nur unzureichend erörtert. Der Fokus dieser Arbeit liegt daher auf der Frage, welche didaktischen Bestandteile eine Fallstudiensituation in der Hochschullehre besitzen sollte und ob die didaktische Aufbereitung sowie Gestaltung in bereits existenten betriebswirtschaftlichen Fallstudien ausreichend berücksichtigt wird.
Business Cases: Ein anwendungsorientierter Leitfaden
by Andreas TaschnerDieses Buch beschreibt detailliert die Voraussetzungen und den Prozessablauf von Business Cases. Diese stellen in der Praxis das wichtigste Instrument dar, um unternehmerische Entscheidungen auf ihre Vorteilhaftigkeit zu analysieren. Um einen ad#65533;quaten Business Case zu erstellen, reicht allerdings die reine Beherrschung der relevanten Methoden der Investitionsrechnung nicht aus. Andreas Taschner gibt hilfreiche Anleitungen und Tipps zur Methodenwahl und Ergebnisdarstellung und erl#65533;utert weitergehende Fragen, wie die Ber#65533;cksichtigung von Unsicherheit oder die Einbeziehung nicht-monet#65533;rer Faktoren. Die Orientierung am idealtypischen Prozess hilft beim Erarbeiten eigener Business Cases und liefert einen Leitfaden f#65533;r die ersten selbstst#65533;ndigen Arbeiten. Anwendungsbezogene Fragen und Antworten vertiefen die Thematik. ,,Business Cases" wendet sich an Unternehmenspraktiker in den Bereichen Investition, Controlling, Planung und Unternehmensf#65533;hrung. Studierende der Wirtschaftswissenschaften an Fachhochschulen und Universit#65533;ten, insbesondere mit den Schwerpunkten Controlling und Unternehmensf#65533;hrung, profitieren von der kompakten Wissensvermittlung.

Business Coaching: Achieving Practical Results Through Effective Engagement
by Peter J. Shaw Robin LinnecarThe aim of this book is primarily to enable those wanting to invest in coaching to be able to do so in the most effective way whether they are doing this as an organisation or as an individual. It illustrates the impact coaching can have and identifies changes in leadership and management demands and expectations. We consider what a coachee gets out of coaching, different formats for coaching and its potential value at Board level, including for the Chief Executive Officer, and for other individuals or groups such as new recruits or those who have just been promoted. We look at the difference between coaching and mentoring and the potential benefits that both can have, especially in combination. We look at how coaching programmes can be introduced effectively and how a leader might introduce coaching in their organisation. We address the international dimension with many organisations looking to ensure that leadership is based on similar values throughout its global reach. This book is unashamedly about business coaching. Quality coaching engagement will impact into an individual's wider life priorities and use of time and energy. But the effective delivery of business priorities has to be at the basis of introducing business coaching. Chapter headings: Effective Engagement The Impact Coaching Can Have Coaching in Context: Changes in Leadership and Management Demands and Expectations What Makes a Good Coach What a Coachee Gets Out of Engaging with Coaching Different Formats for Coaching Coaching and the Chief Executive Different Focuses of Individual Coaching The Difference Between Coaching and Mentoring Meeting Business Priorities Introducing Coaching Programmes in a Whole Organisation Running Coaching in Your Organisation The International Dimension
