Participants are placed into teams, of mixed experience and abilities, and asked to produce a strategic development plan for an existing telecommunications company. The overall aim is to maximise return on current and future investments, and to effectively position the operation for the future.

A full briefing is given, together with a comprehensive dossier that details the market in which the company is operating, current financial and operating position, and its position within the wider competitive market. To add a competitive element and enhance learning, other participants will have been placed into teams to develop strategic development plans for other companies that are operating in the same market.

The case study is designed to maximise the learning and to provide an opportunity to test ideas and innovative strategic thinking in a simulated environment. Market conditions change during the week as the strategic plans are being developed � leading to a highly-charged competitive business environment.

The teams are expected to thoroughly analyse their operation and then present their Strategic Development Plan to an executive commission on day 5. Feedback and peer review ensures learning opportunities are maximised.
