Case study is a simulation technique used in classrooms to help students understand real-life problems in the corporate world. Case studies are used as experiential exercises, widely adopted in most training programmer and business schools worldwide. The purpose of case studies is to provide students with experience of the human resource management problems actually faced by organisations. The critical case studies are complex in nature, through in-depth discussions, students find and evolve multiple solutions to the problems which are cost effective.

The fifty short case studies presented in this book are based on the author's experience. To make the book more student-friendly and entertaining each case study is illustrated with cartoons. These case studies are not only meant for classroom discussion for commerce, management students and trainees, but will also be helpful for corporate executives.
