Course: Strategic Management Fundamental

1. In 2014 an oil palm plantation company X acquired 90 thousand hectares of land in Papua. This land has never been touched by oil palm plantations, so it has the potential to produce high quality crude palm oil (CPO) due to its unexploited soil fertility. In addition, this land is also close to conservation areas and local settlements, making it easier for company X to plan its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Sustainability. In your opinion, is this a Resource Based View or an Industrial Organization? Illustrate your opinion by stating at least 3 reasons.

2. Imagine that you have just been appointed as the CEO of a local game company that wants to produce an application-based mobile game. What competitive strategy will you choose for your company? Explain the reasons for choosing the strategy and illustrate what steps you will take to do so along with your reasons.
