MBA 2015 Capstone: Case Challenge

I had the distinct pleasure of designing this year's case challenge for the LBS MBA Class of 2015 Capstone, in collaboration with The Crown Estate (class theme: Building a sustainable future). Over the course of 3 days, students worked on addressing the following case challenge: "In a world of rapidly shifting demands and expectations of occupiers, what should The Crown Estate do to remain innovative and competitive whilst meeting the demands of its mandate?" Here's a picture of the winning study group, A2, together with Prof. Andrew Scott (LBS), Mr James Cooksey (Head of Central London, Urban, The Crown Estate) and Ms. Judith Everett (Director of Corporate Affairs, The Crown Estate). Well done to all the teams, and congrats to all the graduates!
