*Dear Global Business Scholars: Hi*
*Ref: Invitation to Develop a Global Case on Your Native Country’s Global
Company *
- *I am pleased to invite members of AIB’s Global Family to develop a
Case for publication in a Monographic Case Book to be published by
Routledge (Taylor and Francis).*
- *Your Case must be 20 page single spaced long (not more and not less)
on any company of your choice headquartered in your native country, that is
attempting to build its global brand on the global stage.*
- *This AGBA’s Monographic Case Book is designed to support the
world-class scholarship of emerging scholars based across emerging
countries. *
- *Only two co-authors (at a max) are allowed for each Case. *
- *Only One Case is allowed per author. *
- *Only One Case is allowed per Country. *
- *Monograph would have 30 cases encompassing 30 emerging countries. *
- *A Case published by Harvard Business School on a similar theme would
be shared with prospective authors for benchmarking purposes. It would
spell out (as a sample) (i) global issues, (ii) writing style and (iii)
format; how to develop your own case. *
- *Your Case must focus on your chosen company’s Global Branding Model,
strategy, focus, vision, mission, objectives, growth trajectory, success
story, and the lessons learned during the course of its global brand
building exercise. *
- *You are also requested to develop a 5 Page Teaching Note about your
Case. This teaching note would not be published in the proposed Monographic
Case Book. *
- *However, AGBA’s Global Secretariat located at the Millikin University
(USA) would keep it on file to share it with those global professors who
would like to use your case in their BBA/MBA courses across the world.*
- *It is a Teaching Case. *
- *Objective of Your Case is to teach Decision-Making Skills to MBA
students.*
- *Indexing:*
*I am negotiating with the publisher for the indexing of both book and
individual cases within Scopus for global recognition and prestige.
Consequently, your case would count like a journal publication after
indexing in Scopus. *
- *AGBA needs following 4 documents from you by the deadline given in
the next section. *
- *Your Case in the MS Word Format ONLY; *
- *Your Teaching Note in MS Word format only;*
- *English Editing Certificate; and*
- *Plagiarization** Report showing less than 10% similarity index.*

Reviewers would Review Your Case.*
