the slides of the Start Cup Lazio 2026 presentation (16th March) are now in the course website (Teaching Notes folder).

Dear Students of General Management,

a kind reminder that March, 25th (9am) is the deadline to pre-book for the Accenture Challenge.

As you know, pre-booking does not imply that groups will have to continue with the challenge, if the agenda makes this no longer feasible.

However, because of organizational reasons groups intended to be formed after the deadline has passed will not be allowed to enter the challenge in due course.

Thanks and best wishes.

Dear Students of General Management,

as you know, lectures will not take place on Monday, 23rd. We will recover our General Management lecture in April and you will be updated about "when" in due course.

Our General Management lectures of March, 24th and 25th (9am-11am) will regularly take place.

Looking forward to meeting you again over the next week.

Have a good week end.

Dear Students of General Management,

the question for the fourth Students' Space is as also very simple.

Is there a company which you would like to work for? Why? Please, think about 3 main reasons.

Again, this activity is not compulsory. But, if someone wants to take action, she or he will be more than welcome at the beginning of Monday's lecture (there is no need to book in advance and prepare slides, we will have 15 minutes to share ideas all together).

Thanks and enjoy the week end.

Dear Students of General Management,

in terms of class materials what we have developed this week can be summarized as follows:

1) Planning: Chapter 4 of the book plus Accenture slides on the website;

Over the next week, we will continue with our discussion around the strategy questions (focus on "how) and tools. We will then enter decision making.

Thanks and best wishes.
