INSTRUCTOR RESOURCES
We strived to achieve four goals in preparing this package of Instructor Resources for the 8th Edition of
Essentials of Strategic Management:
1. To equip you with all the resources and pedagogical tools, you’ll need to design and deliver a
course that is on the cutting edge and solidly in the mainstream of what students need to know
about crafting and executing winning strategies.
2. To give you wide flexibility in putting together a course syllabus that you are comfortable with and
proud of.
3. To give you a smorgasbord of options to draw from in keeping the nature of student assignments
varied and interesting.
4. To help you deliver a course with upbeat tempo that wins enthusiastic applause from students.
We believe the contents of the package will be particularly informative and helpful to faculty members
teaching the strategy course for the first time, but we have also tried to embellish the content with ideas
and suggestions that will prove valuable to experienced faculty looking for ways to refurbish their course
offering and/or to keep student assignments varied and interesting.

A QUICK OVERVIEW OF THE ENTIRE INSTRUCTOR RESOURCE
PACKAGE
The Instructor’s Manual for Essentials of Strategic Management contains:
• A quick look at the topical focus of the text’s 10 chapters (Section 1).
• An overview of the 12 cases in the text, along with a grid profiling the strategic issues that come into play
in each case (Section 1 and Section 3).
• A discussion of the reasons to use a strategy simulation as an integral part of your strategy course. The
two web-based strategy simulations—The Business Strategy Game or GLO-BUS—that are companions
to this text incorporate the very kinds of strategic thinking, strategic analysis, and strategic decision
making described in the text chapters and connect beautifully to the chapter content. The automated
online nature of both simulations entails minimal administrative time and effort on the instructor’s part.
You will be pleasantly shocked (and pleased!!) at the minimal time it will take you to incorporate the
use of GLO-BUS or The Business Strategy Game and the added degree of student excitement and
energy that either of these competition-based strategy simulations brings to the course—see Section 2
for more details.
• Tips and suggestions for effectively using either GLO-BUS or The Business Strategy Game in your
course (covered in both Section 2 and Section 3).

• The merits of incorporating the use of the Connect Management assignment and assessment platform
accompanying the 8th edition into your course requirements. Connect includes chapter quizzes, case
assignment exercises for all 12 cases, and two learning assurance exercises for all 10 chapters of the 8th
Edition. Connect offers automatic grading for all chapter quizzes, one learning assurance exercise
per chapter, and all 12 cases in the text. Also, in this edition is a set of Connect Exercises for
Simulation Participants. Connect offers an easy-to-administer approach to testing and assessing

individual-level student mastery of chapter concepts and case analysis (covered in Section 3).
• Ideas and suggestions on course design and course organization (Section 3 and Section 4).

oral team presentations (Section 3).

▪ Lecture Notes for all 12 chapters in the text (Section 5).
▪ A comprehensive teaching note for each of the 12 cases in Essentials of Strategic Management (Section
6).

In addition to the Instructor’s Manual, the support package for adopters also includes several important
features that should be of interest. A 600+ question test bank is available for printed or online exams in
McGraw Hill’s Test Builder web-based application.

Connect® The 8th edition package includes a robust collection of chapter quizzes, chapter learning
assurance exercises, and case preparation exercises that should prove to ease instructors’ grading and
assessment obligations. Student understanding of chapter concepts can be assessed at the individual-level
through chapter quizzes and applied learning assurance exercises that record each student’s grade in a web-
based grade book. All chapter quizzes are automatically graded and one Assurance of Learning exercise for
each of the 10 chapters is automatically graded.

Features of the Connect package for the 8th edition include:

▪ Autograded chapter quizzes consisting of 20 multiple-choice questions that students can take to measure
their grasp of the material presented in each of the 10 chapters.
▪ SmartBook 2.0 is an adaptive learning solution that provides personalized learning to individual student
needs, continually adapts to pinpoint knowledge gaps, and focuses learning on concepts requiring
additional study. It fosters more productive learning, takes the guesswork out of what to study, and helps
students better prepare for class. Our adaptive reading experience has been made more personal,
accessible, productive, and mobile.
▪ WhiteBoard Videos: These brief, contemporary, and engaging videos offer dynamic, student-centered
introductions, illustrations, and animations that guide students through challenging concepts with
assignable assessment questions.
