Descriptif

The world economy is increasingly characterized as a service economy. Put in the most simple terms, services are deeds, processes and performances. Services account for around 67 % of all European employment and 73 per cent of European gross domestic product. Service organizations vary in size. Huge international corporations operate in airlines, banking, insurance, telecommunications or hotels. Locally owned small businesses operate as restaurants, laundries, optometrists, beauty parlors, and numerous business-to-business services... This course objective is to prepare students to become effective managers in services contexts.

Evaluation intermédiaire / contrôle continu 2Séance n° 7-8-9
Ecrite et orale (30 min) / en groupe / Anglais / pondération : 30 %
Précisions : in groups of 3 students, elaborate a case study on a service marketing issue. You will work on EM Strasbourg Business School as a service organization, for easier access to data and observation. You are expected to present the organization and to identify a specific service marketing issue, of your choice based on qualitative or quantitative analysis that you will provide (problem formulation). You will then analyse the problem to offer recommendations for improvement. The case should have a minimum of 4 pages up to 10 pages (Time roman 12. interval between lignes 1.5) including appendices. The case resolution can be presented in the form of a Power point presentation. The idea is to show that you know and are able to mobilize concpets, frameworks (for instance the gap model, the molecular model...) studied in class and apply them in a relavant way to a real life service situation. To gather data, you can collect information using observation, interviews, questionnaires...the service problem that you will work on can address any aspect of EM Strasbourg as a servuction in its physical an/or digital expressions.
