By Mohan Gopinath, Kavita Chavali, Dolphy Abraham, and C Kishan Rao. The discussion point in the case revolves around a senior banker in India who used unethical methods and misused his position of trust by making fraudulent withdrawals from the unclaimed balances account in the branch. The mitigating circumstance was that he had to pay for the treatment of his mother who was suffering from bone cancer which the doctors said could be cured with treatment. Unclaimed balances are, in banking parlance, those accounts in a bank in which there have been no operations for many years. The case is based on a composite of real life incidents and individuals. The decision focus in the case is how to react to transgressions of laid down practices in a bank by senior officers even though there were pressing circumstances for them to resort to these transgressions.

This case study is about human resource management issues at Air India (AI) after its merger. AI was the merged body of Air India Limited (AIL) and Indian Airlines Limited (IAL). The merger was approved in 2007 and the merged body was called the National Aviation Company of India Limited (NACIL). The case discusses the various HR issues and other reasons which led AI into a crisis. The merger was initiated with the aim of making profits and gaining high market share for the airline. But because of post merger HR issues like compensation, career progression, and salary payment, promotion issues, and employee strikes, the merger did not yield the intended objectives. Experts said that poor management practices and improper planning had pushed the merged entity into trouble. The case discusses in detail the major causes for the AI merger failure, and some of the practices undertaken by the management to make the merger a success. AI in addition to HR issues was also saddled with huge financial debts. These two issues gave raise to speculations whether AI would survive and achieve the objectives of the merger.

India and China are among the world’s fastest growing economies which jointly contribute nearly 30% to global economic growth as the balance of economic power continues to shift from West to East. Both China and India are not emerging economies, they are actually “re-emerging.” China and India have particular strengths and competitive advantages that have allowed each of them to weather the global financial crisis better than most countries and to gain ground in the “catching-up game” with the developed world. This video will cover the strengths and weaknesses of each country and review the current status of their “economic race.”

In Coat of Many Countries we see how the clothes we wear today are the remarkable coming together of goods and services from all over the world. By following the evolution of a suit, we glimpse the practical application of the new global economy. The motivating force behind this well-traveled suit jacket is to get maximum quality at minimum labor costs. We follow the fleece from an Australian sheep farm to northern India where it is spun into cloth. The shoulder pads are made in China; the lining in Korea; the buttons in Canada; and it all meets in Hamburg. Then it's trucked to Russia, where the frontier guards are paid off, and there it is cut and assembled to an Italian design for ultimate sale at Sears. The film explains why each of the stops on the itinerary makes economic sense. And, surprisingly, the savings far outweigh the transportation costs. The manufacture of a single garment mirrors the inter-relatedness of national economies and often reflects foreign policy as well. This fast-paced portrait of the global assembly line is a must for classes in economics, business, management, marketing, and international studies. High School College Adult

Infosys Limited, a global technology Services Company, was headquartered in Bangalore, India. The founders of the company wanted to create an organization that had been 'built to last', and had the agility to manage ambiguity and uncertainty under all circumstances. From the dawn of the new millennium, the company had emphasized the development of leaders. The company had established the world's largest leadership development institute at Mysore. At Infosys, the Leadership model was framed as a seven pillar model. The model emphasized the types of leadership qualities the leaders had to possess to become an effective leader. The model was intended to groom leaders to gain knowledge on various situations and also to enhance their decision making skills. The company developed a three-tier pyramid for developing leaders at all levels of employees at Infosys and also established a robust process for identifying and including talents into different leadership tiers. The Infosys Leadership institute designed a 'Nine pillar model' to inculcate leadership based on the organization's requirements and the employee's area of interest. The case discusses the various leadership development initiatives at Infosys and also narrates how the company found itself in a leadership crisis in 2007 which further led to the company strengthening its leadership development initiatives. In early 2012, the company found itself with a new management team that had taken over from its more illustrious founders. Many senior leaders of Infosys were expected to retire in a period of ten years from 2011. In addition to reassuring their customers and investors who feared that the Infosys's new leadership might not be able to manage the future uncertain situations, the company had to quickly develop a pool of leaders.

This case study explores the evolution of Indian executive career and the changing role of a CEO in the dynamic and less predictable business environment. Quoting examples from top Indian companies – both manufacturing and service sectors – this case study provides an overview on the new age CEO, the roles and responsibilities and shows how younger generation can better lead the Indian corporate entities. It delves into many issues to debate on: whether the young CEOs have the requisite experience and exposure to lead an organisation at the helm, the reasons for today’s organisations looking for relatively younger generation to take charge and whether age and experience count any longer.

This case is about a mid-sized direct selling organization Direc2U. Rakesh Sharma (Sharma), the training manager at the company realized the need for a training intervention for line managers as he felt that despite a contemporary training program, the sales force was unable to internalize the training due to lack of support from the line managers in the field. But the CEO of Direc2U was not supportive of the initiative as he saw no value in this program. Moreover, as the company was going through a tough phase he also wanted to cut the training budget further. Sharma had to find ways to involve the line managers in sales training and also find ways to link training to the bottom line results.
