    Dear Professor Srivastava and others:

    The following case published in 2010 may be of interest:

    The Tata Nano: The People's Car

    http://hbr.org/product/tata-nano-the-people-s-car/an/710420-PDF-ENG?N=4294958507&Ns=publication_date|1&Ntt=tata&Nao=0 
    Particularly with the Tata's purchase of the Land Rover business from Ford, your students in Michigan may be able to discuss and  relate to the local impact of global business decisions.

    Good luck!

    Dear IMD Members,

    I am in the middle of redesigning my international management course that I teach from strategy perspective. I am particularly interested in finding new cases (preferably Harvard or distributed by Harvard Press)  and journal articles focusing on doing business in Africa, India, China, and Brazil. I am currently using several  China cases; I want to create a new module on "Doing Business in Africa" and add some cases on India and Brazil.

    I am happy to share  my old  International Management class syllabus ( I will redesign it based on modules) with this vibrant community.

    I will greatly appreciate if you teach global strategy/international management (strategy perspective) and can share your class syllabus.

    Thank you for your help.

    Manish
