MBA "Discussion Leadership" by Prof. Shinichi Takeuchi
Introducing MBA "Discussion Leadership" by Professor Shinichi Takeuchi. In this class, students are asked to actually conduct a case method class in order to set a course for becoming good learners of case method education, and the class is structured so that students can discover how to take a leadership role in promoting team building through discussion.
The class will be conducted in a format where students will be asked to lecture on the cases themselves, and the students will act as the teachers and manage the discussion class for the rest of the students. On the first day of the class, a lecture was given to understand the concept of case study education, and then Professor Takeuchi himself demonstrated how to lead the class, followed by a series of actual mock classes. After the lecture, Professor Takeuchi will demonstrate how to lead a class, and then the students will experience a series of mock classes. Through the guidance of Professor Takeuchi, the students will learn how to initiate and facilitate discussions. In addition, students will learn how to construct the suggestions behind the case and lead the discussion toward the acquisition of the learnings so that the students themselves can learn from the class.
