We are looking for managers, consultants, experienced entrepreneurs, and civil servants to serve as jurors for the competition—smart people with real-world business insight. They will serve on judging panels with professors from Sprott, and our alumni from previous case competitions.
ROCA Cases will describe a business problem / opportunity facing an organization, and provide the information and opinions that the manager has currently available. ROCA cases will be relevant and challenging, and will cover a broad range of interdisciplinary business problems. Intense competition across sectors of our economy is forcing the introduction of newer technologies, while at the same time cooperation replaces pure self-interest. All will focus on business strategy, though individual cases may lean toward marketing, human resource management, operations, or financial issues.
As a judge, you will sit on a jury of 3-4 judges. Each jury will comprise of a diverse group of individuals from various backgrounds (faculty, alumnus, industry professionals). The jury will meet on their respective day (from 8am to 12pm/noon EST) to watch presentations from the competing schools, deliberate on divisional winners and provide feedback to the competing teams. One member of each jury is the head judge. Head judges meet and deliberate on overall case winners for each case. Note: You do not need to be in Canada to participate as a judge, this competition is a virtual event.
