Inside the HBS Case Method

[@Belle784]

I went to HBS and had one of the greatest experiences of my life. Thought the students were VERY intelligent, wanted to be there on their own right and were inspired to do good things in the business world.

[@revolutionaryjake]

This is harvard the standards are set at the highest level. Each person here are extremely smart and mixing with the same type with different views makes them even more... what a crazy place!!

[@JohnRDallasJr]

Outstanding. Having been president of several businesses of varying types and sizes, I am always encouraged to see such intentionality and passion in means and methods for teaching deeper, wider and higher thinking. The HBS Case Method models metacognitive skills required for war rooms, board rooms and c-suite offices. Though uploaded in 2009, this message remains fresh for today and tomorrow. Thank you.

[@emilreyes9850]

This video brings back fond and exciting memories for me. I took my MBA from the Asian Inst. Of Mgt. in the late 70's. At that time our school had an working collaboration with HBS. The backbone of our school's teaching method was the Case Method. Our Dean at that time was Dr. Stephen Fuller of HBS. What it taught me is never to shoot down any idea no matter how absurd it may be at the start. What is so wonderful is to see the gradual evolution of ideas that will bring you to a better decision.

[@jmanwani7]

,, this video brings tears in my eyes.. it shows with hardwork u reach places and at places u meet different ppl who teach u things and they learn from u..

[@shimrsparklshine]

Man, I'm envious of the education that Harvard students get. You're taught HOW to think at these Ivy League schools. Engaged peers, exposure to others' perspectives and input... I wish it were this way with all universities.

[@marklaurent3116]

Gosh. When i was in college my professor gave us a case and then he’ll let us read, analyze, and prepare to give recommendation after 4 hours. We didn’t have much time to do it all. So our discussion is so boring and we arrived in conclusions that needed more discussion and more reading and analyzing. I like HBS style and would love to go here someday. My dream school. Hoping and praying.

I know a couple of HBS alumni, and they both say it was an amazing experience studying for an MBA at Harvard!

[@training2572]

Yes I learned this case teaching method through a full time program and its a beautiful method of training students for the situations which are not in our control...I saw the joy of learning on students faces. Thank you Harvard and thank you Prof. G. D. Apte, Prof. Atul Gopal, Prof. Makrand, Prof. Charu who were my teachers for Harvard Case methods

[@santho5h]

[@johnegas3694]

Watching this video reminds me when I was at my cognitive psychology class related to SLA, and my teachers assigned us to think about foreign language student's problems and the way we as future teacher can deal with any kinds of learning a language issues.

[@nognilk]

the problem I have with business school students is that they come to their new jobs, and say, "this answer is the way we did it in school, so this answer is the way we should do it at work" The problem with that mindset is that, at school nobody is saying no to your textbooks or case study answers, but at work, the competition, the stakeholders, and everybody is saying Hell No with money on the line. Business school students need to learn how to win with plan b, with plan c, with plan z.

[@FelixTetteh]

I disagree. It's not perfect but trust me people object your answers.

[@neodelphi]

im doing MBA and mind you plan b-z is always in the table plus most of my classmates have already 5-20 years works experience under their belt so been there done that as well, i think you were referring to MIM grad who just came from their bachelors degree without work experience :)

[@core2500]

But from the discussion we can see plan a-z tho

[@b.n.6923]

Why do these companies (the "new job") still go after business school in the first place?

[@DigitalDezinesCEO]

Well, quite that's an assumption isn't it.

[@neilhamirkeshvala]

That structure is critical to bring into the classroom in order to develop the necessary skills for the real business world. Decisions have to be made, and the best way to learn about what works and what doesn't is experiencing it first hand. What they are incorporating into the classroom is an expansion of what can be learned by shadowing someone in a business and getting an internship. I encourage this atmosphere to continue.

[@MMmm-bg9li]

Okay, TOEFL doesn’t count for anything other than show that you can comprehend English. I’ve taken TOEFL iBT in High School and also got a 117, so that’s nothing. 730 is great but is still the average stat for Harvard. You can’t show one grade and expect admission, there’s so much more to it.

[@kaonetlagae2051]

Learning shouldn't be painful...this really sank in. So sad how almost every higher learning institute has forgotten about their customers (learners, students) in creating a learning experience & culture, so so sad, I mean of all things, how do you ignore the experience of the very person who consumes or interacts with your product/service? :'(

[@Nate-dn1gx]

it's analogous to a doctor/patient relationship. the patient has input but does the patient know the best course of treatment?

[@kaonetlagae2051]

@@Nate-dn1gx true but even so, the patient is the person experiencing the ailment so even though the doctor maybe well trained to treat ailments of all kinds, that can never efface the experience a patient has with his or her own body. So yes, to a significant degree, a patient's experience will still count because if it weren't so, no doctor would bother trying to understanding how a patient reacts to certain prescriptions

[@tomtom-ec6tb]

Looks good on paper but you do not really learn doing a business until you actually do it in the real world. What it helps is with networking and having on your CV. However, as a friend learned after leaving his job to set up a business was the real learning curve - 2 failed business but the third one was a success.
