Beginning of the Halloween week :-)

Well, a couple of Halloween parties planned by different student clubs, a halloween event planned by IMBA team, a secheduled photo shoot where we will all dress up casually, a shave-off party to launch Movember and a long weekend with so many appealing destinations calling ..

Sounds so good right? But then, this week also is the one when we need to be done with the first round of marketing simulation, our group needs to prepare for talent management presentation, there are lots of readings for everyday, I have some fellowship related work to be done by end of the week and probably all of us need to start squeezing in some time for job hunting and interview preparations. Add to it, this is a short week, if there is anything planned for the long weekend.

I know, I know suddenly - all that sounded so rosy about this week is not so rosy anymore. Add to it, we are still waiting on four of our grades, almost 75 credits, which has kept the anxiety within many of us still alive.

So, when Erik started his class today saying, the case for today about a company with innovative blood substitute nicely fits with the whole Halloween theme for this week, I couldn't agree more. At its onset, today being Monday, the week ahead does look scary.

Anyways, leaving behind this side-talk, today the in the BGS class, we discussed the effect that a political regime can have on economic situations in the country and how the policy makers can alter the faith of industries - of course, we saw it more from the perspective of the industrialists and analyzed what are the situations that we should not get our ventures into, when it comes to dependence and influence on policies.

Marketing Strategy class was about 'going to market' when we have an innovative product and how? We also discussed some numbers on finding the market size and potential market share.

A common theme - in both classes, we discussed ventures that have already been shut down.

Scary isn't it? Welcome to the Halloween week :-D
