| Summary: | This teaching-based case study tasks students with analyzing a strategic decision. This analysis is guided by a script describing a strategic decision undertaken in a fictional nonprofit sport organization (i.e., Canadian Ice Tennis Federation). Students' analysis is achieved by applying strategic decision-making theory, including its five central constructs: centrality, duration, flow, interaction, and scrutiny. Knowledge is gained by analyzing a strategic decision according to its level of authorization, length, delays, negotiations, and information sources. This teaching-based case study is intended for undergraduate students in general sport management and/or strategy/strategic management courses. The benefit of this teaching-based case study resides in its ability to teach students how to make decisions, a central and ubiquitous task in organizational life, and their future endeavors in the sport industry.Keywords: decision-making process, strategic decisions, not-for-profit sport organizations, strategic management, strategy. |
