Engaging Emerging
Markets – Case
Studies Case studies are interactive, dynamic, and
participant-driven teaching tools designed to
guide students through real-world case examples
of business issues. Students learn to analyze
information, develop rational alternatives, make
decisions, and recommend implementation tactics
in time-sensitive situations, just as they would
as practicing managers.
Ivey is the second largest producer
and distributor of field
based management case studies in the world.
These cases are used extensively in our degree
and executive education programs, and are also
available to other universities, business and
government organizations. We have
identified emerging markets cases within the
Ivey database and classified them into
subcategories. We also regularly add cases to
these following subcategories. Follow the links
to view searchable case lists from our
interactive database at Ivey Publishing.

Ivey is the
first Canadian business school to join United
Nations'
Global Compact initiative. The Global
Compact (www.globalcompact.org)
was launched by United Nations Secretary-General
Kofi Annan in 1999. His challenge was for
business leaders to join an international
initiative to bring together companies with UN
agencies, labour and civil society to support
universal environmental and social principles.
The Global Compact encompasses 10 main
principles in four categories – Human Rights,
Labour Standards, Environment and
Anti-Corruption. Follow the links
below for abstracts of Ivey cases and
publications on:
Human Rights
Principle
1: Businesses should support and respect
the protection of internationally proclaimed
human rights; and
Principle 2: make sure that they are
not complicit in human rights abuses.
Labour Standards
Principle
3: Businesses should uphold the freedom
of association and the effective recognition
of the right to collective bargaining;
Principle 4: the elimination of all
forms of forced and compulsory labour;
Principle 5: the effective abolition
of child labour; and
Principle 6: the elimination of
discrimination in respect of employment and
occupation.
Environment
Principle

precautionary approach to environmental
challenges;
Principle 8: undertake initiatives to
promote greater environmental
responsibility; and

friendly technologies
