Course Syllabus

Abstract

This course introduces students to the concept and practical application of the business model as a strategic and managerial tool. It delves deep into its analytical uses (assessing existing businesses) and design uses (creating new businesses). Central to both is the role of marketing. Strategic marketing bridges the perspectives of customers, competitors, and the company, offering vital insights into the business modeling process. Students will master the business model framework to holistically analyze organizations, with an emphasis on refining their value propositions, positioning, and market-entry strategies. They'll also cultivate the skills needed to thrive as both entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs. Our teaching approach combines theory-rich lectures peppered with illustrative case studies and hands-on group sessions centered on case method teaching, enabling students to apply learned concepts and tools through collaborative and individual tasks.

Assessment Elements

Assessment Elements

  • blocking Examination test
    The exam will take place offline in a computer auditorium (Startexam platform without proctoring). The test will consist of a selection of questions and assignemtns of various types: true/false questions (10 questions, 1 point per correct answer), multiple choice questions (5 questions, 3 points per correct answer), checkboxes (3 questions, 5 points per correct answer, partly correct answers don't count), connections (2 questions, 5 points per correct answer, partly correct answers don't count), open questions (3 questions, 10 points max per answer) and essay (1 question / 20 points max). For open questions and for essay the following evaluation criteria will be used: quality of argumentation, usage of the concepts covered in the course, completeness of the submission. Students who could not accomplish other elements of control for a good reason the exam weight will be 80% the final grade with the rest 20% coming from the group presentation element which can be accomplished on the individual basis.
  • non-blocking Collaborative work on Perusall
    Perusall is a social learning tool which helps students to engage with the course materials and make reading a social experience. A selection of articles and other content pieces (e.g. podcasts, videos) will be offered for reading, listening and watching, leaving coments and engaging into discussions with peers.
  • non-blocking Group Presentation
    There is no rigid structure for your presentation. However, certain topics are required to be covered. Please give an overview of the BM pattern, any history behind it’s popularity and development over time. You can mention companies or brands which pioneered the pattern and developed it to the next level. - Provide some analysis on the BM pattern — pros and cons, when to employ etc. - Illustrate the pattern with the help of examples. If possible use your own examples. Also would be great if you coould look at russian companies. Here you might want to employ the Business model canvas (BMC) to demonstrate the interdependancies within the BM blocks on the example of a specific company. Some BM patterns can be easily analysed with the help of BMC, some are more challenging to think about using that framework. So use your best judgement. BM patterns as they are conceptualised by Gassmann et al. are essentially approaches to do business so don’t expect that you would be able to talk about all 9 blocks of BMC presenting your pattern. Some BM patterns are focused on ways how companies obtain revenue, some are about ways to design and position yourself in freames of the value chain, some are about innovative ways to define value proposition, and some offer avenues to grow the business. The main goal for your presntation is to familiarise your groupmates with the BM pattern and prepare the materials which will be used by the group in prepartion for the exam. So please make your slides content rich or provide links to the sources.
