| Course content, structure and pedagogical
approach |
|
Firms constantly think about creation value through (new)
products and services. A core question is: How can a firm
successfully create offerings for customers and adapt to their
changing needs? The Marketing Management course aims to provide an
answer by covering the foundations of marketing management and show
how companies successfully can assess markets to deliver products
and services that align with (latent) customer needs.
The objective of this course is to enable students to apply
concepts, frameworks, models, and theories to describe the role of
marketing with respect to the three C’s (customer, company,
competitor). The course introduces students to the market audit,
consumer behavior research, STP (segmenting, targeting, and
positioning), product life cycle management, pricing, and
communication. The basics will enable participants to design a
marketing plan. Issues related to responsible marketing and
contemporary marketing issues are woven into class
discussions.

| Description of the teaching methods |
| This course includes the presentations of core
topics, discussions of assigned chapters, articles, and short
cases. Readings are required but not sufficient, as everyone is
expected to participate actively to discussion, and provide inputs
from their own experiences. Therefore, attendance is important for
a successful learning experience as well as doing well on the final
project/exam. |
| Feedback during the teaching period |
| The interactive case discussion format allows for
continuous feedback. The students are expected to attend class, be
prepared, and participate in the discussions. |
