Competition held from April 8 to 10 and final round witnessed 15 teams from 11 countries.
The competition involved solving a complex live case based on the palm oil industry in Indonesia and presenting the final solution to a panel of judges comprising experts from both industry and academia, which included the former CEO of Pepsico International, Micheal D White.
The team from IIM Bangalore finished third overall ahead of teams from Yale School of Management and MIT Sloan School of Management. The winning team was Asian Institute of Management from Philippines. University of South California, USA, stood second.
In the first round, teams were asked to submit a video/PPT or essay on integrated leadership and the impact on a real-life problem. The team from IIMB was shortlisted based on a written submission that focused on integrated leadership in the automotive industry in light of massive disruption caused by autonomous driving and cab aggregators.
Fifteen teams from 11 countries qualified for the next round. The second round was held at the Yale University at New Haven, USA. In the second round, the teams were given a case study to solve in 7 hours.
