New Strategy Teaching Tools Website
Some of you may be familiar with Mason Carpenter's old teaching toolkit. I have initiated a new site that includes everything from that site plus quite a few additional exercises and videos. Please check it out at:
www.CarpenterStrategyToolbox.com.
You can filter by type of tool (exercise, video, etc.) using the tabs at the top or you can filter by topic in a strategy course (5 forces, RBV, etc.) using the categories on the right side. You should find something useful in no time at all.
Please help make the site more useful:
· Comment on tools you have used in class (adding tips, etc.)
· Submit new tools so the resource is always growing
· Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions
Here are links to a few exercises and resources that you might find useful (to give you a feel):
· Global Alliance Game (focus is on the search for complementarities and hazards in negotiating to take advantage of them).
· Tinkertoy exercise (focus can be resources, first mover advantage, strategy under uncertainty, or strategy process - among other things).
· Planning vs Luck Video depicts two lions waiting for their an antelope to present itself (is it luck or a good plan?).
