EBX (A): Eike Batista and the X Factor Case Solution
Abstract:
Case A checks out the profession trajectory of Eike Batista, CEO and creator of EBX, a Brazilian corporation concentrated on mining, gas & oil, delivery and other markets, who is currently planning to broaden into brand-new industry even though his existing companies are only simply moving into a functional stage. His excellence originates from his strength in making use of the institutional space in Brazil to discover brand-new market chances; operationalizing these brand-new companies is rather another difficulty. Case B charts the remarkable ordeal of EBX Team and Eike Batista, who loses US$ 30 billion in one year.
Pedagogical Goals:
Institutional spaces and the capability of companies to make use of such spaces for brand-new company chances. Firm ambidexterity: the difficulty of making use of existing company chances while checking out brand-new ones. Time compression diseconomies in constructing a big corporation in an emerging market.
This is just an excerpt. This case is about Strategy
