Syllabus
Obiettivi Formativi
Marketing Plan and Markstrat Simulation course aims to provide students with an active and applied learning experience. In fact, the course consists of the simulation of the marketing division’s management of a multi-brand firm, focused on decisions and marketing processes. The course, which is scheduled to take place in the last semester of the Master of Science, also intends to allow students from different specialization courses to work together and experience the importance of heterogeneous theories and backgrounds in taking original and successful business decisions.
Prerequisiti
No specific prior knowledge is required. In any case, familiarity with the basic concepts of economics and statistics is certainly useful for increasing the "absorbing capacity" and making the learning process of theories, models, tools and techniques on which the course of Markstrat focuses.
Metodi didattici
MARKSTRAT SIMULATION PERFORMANCE
Students will be evaluated on the basis of the ranking obtained at the end of the game and the group project. Specifically, 5% of the total mark will be based on a peer evaluation (among group members); 35% on the game’s score and the other 30% on the group project.
Each group may ask the instructor for a loan up to a maximum of 15 million, that should be used mainly to launch R&D projects to improve brand portfolios. The loan can be requested entirely for a single period or subdivided for different periods, but not for more than 3 periods (starting from the 3rd to the 8th). It is important that the amount of loans does not exceed the maximum ceiling of 15 million. The loan has to be repaid in subsequent periods (5% interest rate).
MARKSTRAT PRESENTATION
At the end of the Markstrat simulation, each team will have to prepare a short presentation (of max. 5 minutes) on the adopted marketing strategy during the game. In particular, each team will have to present: 1) an analysis of the company performance during the simulation; 2) the marketing strategy, all the adjustments made due to contextual changes; 3) conclusions in terms of key learning points; 4) Future marketing actions if the simulation was about to run for another 5 rounds.
GROUP PROJECT ON ACADEMIC INNOVATION
Each team (groups based on the Markstrat Simulation), will be asked to generate ideas about possible innovations regarding the teaching process in Luiss. This project is a part of a larger ongoing project directed by Prof. Romani. More information on the project guidelines and presentation requirements will be given by Prof. Romani on 30 September 2020.
FINAL EXAM (for students attending the course)
Final exam is a written test (multiple-choice) on the development of a marketing plan (Participant Handbook + Lecture slides). Students will have to answer to 20 multiple-choice questions regarding topics discussed in class.
FINAL EXAM (for students that do not attend the course)
Students who do not accept at least one of the marks obtained at one of the components mentioned above, should take the non-attending examination mode.
