We were working on a SFI project which was to study the strategy of Kingfisher and the deal it struck to overtake Deccan and provide a road map for the future. The first two parts largely involved to collect all the information from the web and analyse the same using some of the standard strategy frameworks and debate on the effectiveness of each move made by Mallya in the case of Kingfisher and Deccan. The last part was to look at the current performance and come up with a plan to go forward - one of my group mates (Piyush) and myself debated over various issues for over about half an hour which cleared most of our doubts and helped us come up with a clear set of ideas which we eventually mentioned in our report. We completed the report and looked at the watch it was 3AM. We laughed over the fact that we came up with a road map in an hour - that too at the most odd hour of the day. Now thats WIMWI life !!!
