REFLECTION- LEARNING LAUNCH

CHALLENGE

The challenge that I have taken into consideration is the task of completing a quality submission in  B-School Case competitions. Whenever we start the progress, we would spend much amount of  time in brainstorming and come up with really good insights. But when it comes to presenting them  into the PowerPoint slides, we lost our way. Each time we did the submission at the last minute. The  outcomes were reflected in the form of degraded quality in the presentation slides. These things  cost us heavily and we couldn’t make up to the further rounds in many competitions. We are sure  that this has to be changed and we should go in a systematic approach while dealing with case  competitions.

SELECTION

The design tool that I am selected for solving this challenge is Learning Launch. We identified the  weak points of submissions which made its quality worse and the timeline framework. Thereafter,  we made sure that everything competition should be done in more systematic way possible like  having progress update on daily meeting, having some senior experts in the group for proper  guidance and sharing each other deliverables in the WhatsApp group so that if anyone having  objections can raise and clarified then and there. As a whole we identified these changes and put it  in a form of submission process procedure and followed it seriously.

APPLICATION

A case competition was floated in one of the competitions hosting website (Dare2Compete). This  competition was regarding Entrepreneurship domain. We enrolled ourselves on the first day of the  announcement. We downloaded the case and shared it in the group. The next day onwards we  organized Zoom meetings to kick off the task with Brainstorming about the case. We did this for  almost 3-4 days continuously. Each day we come up with new structure of the solution. Once we  decide the solutions, we shared the tasks into sub-tasks and each member is assigned towards it. We  kept an eye on the timeline every time. Also, we identified some of the things didn’t go as planned  and we noted them as well. Finally, we completed the solution on D-day much before the deadline.  This was a huge success to ourselves and we did a quality one.

INSIGHTS

The insights we gained were worth of doing it. They were explained below:

1. When we go in a systematic way, we get a lot of focus from each member of the group.

They seemed actively involved and serious about it.

2. Keeping track of time was very crucial to us to complete the submissions on time.  3. Assigning tasks are important. Therefore, it should be assigned to the persons who are

capable otherwise it will cost the time.

4. Having VC for meetings went well and that made the progress in a good way by

interactions.

APPROACH

Learning Launch was successful in testing the way that we chose is correct or not. We quietly  succeeded in that. In the future, we would like to try some other tools like Mind Mapping for doing  the idea generation and Visualization tool for identifying the problem in a much deeper way  possible. We learnt a lot in the learning launch process and we hope to eradicate those mistakes in  the future and strive to grow hard to achieve success.
