Astronomer’s crisis management goes to Pivat B-School Class

The company’s effort to change the story by bringing Gwnethath Paltro, the actor and founder of the lifestyle brand as a “temporary spokes”, is now set to become a discussion point in academic circles.

The management students will debate whether there is humor (since the Paltro Band is the former wife of Coldplay’s lead singer Chris Martin, during whose concert the couple were caught on camera). They will question whether this step was a “clever or intelligent” form of crisis management, and whether shareholders and consumers are actually run by Star Power.

“I can envisage a large -scale case study in the coming days. The case shows the power of humor, irony and satire as a tool to effectively express a strong message, especially when facing negative PR,” said Vishwanath Pingali, who teach economics in the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ahmedabad. Pingali’s research interests include digital markets and healthcare.

“The text clearly explains what the firm is, and what its main business is. Everything else is short -lived and it should be considered in this way. Satire and irony, when used in the right amount, can express the message very effectively,” Pingali said. “Initial comments, ‘I have been hired on a very temporary basis,” it is also very thoughtful what astronomer thinks, and what it wants we think about the crisis. “

IIMS and other business schools regularly discuss the case study on corporate administration, brand management, and, often, live cases that are running, which are running. These may include global programs, major mergers and acquisitions, or regional changes during rare events such as an epidemic, forcing firms to change their operations and customize quickly. There are classes in strategy, HR, marketing and economics where such cases are discussed to understand share prices, customer perceptions and their impact on business results.

For example, last year, threads were raised, strategy management, business development and market analysis discussing general elections in classrooms.

Some case studies are also published. IIM Bangalore’s case study on the use of digital media in the promotion of the film 1920: Evil Return Harvard was published by Business Publishing. According to the institute’s website, case studies are also being used by students in the US, Canada, Norway and Slovenia.

The study by IIM Bangalore highlighted the social media marketing strategy of this short budget film, and how it was targeted on an audience who knew about the franchise and looked at the scary style.

Speaking about the inclusion of astronomer episodes in the classroom, IIM Kozhikode director Debashis Chatterjee said that students will be given open end questions. “They will argue on ‘clever vs. wise’ crisis management. Will the image perception depicted by the firm over the weekend become a case of management, and what will be ‘right’ to do?”

On 26 July, a video of astronomer on social media sidelined the controversy to speak about the work of the firm in Paltrow. “I am hired on a very temporary basis to speak on behalf of 300+ employees in astronomers,” he said.

Barely a month ago, the company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Andy Bayran and Human Resource Head, Kristen Cabot, were caught on camera during the coldplay concert ‘Kiss Cam’ moment. The firm then faced tremendous backlash about morality and management challenges. However, the recent video once again noted online interaction as to whether the crisis could be postponed, as the firm tries to focus on its main occupation.

“The events of the last few days have found a level of media that some companies-Deta and AI also encounter startups alone in our small corner of the world. Spotlight is unusual and real for our team, and while I never wanted to do so, astronomer is now a domestic name.

A professor who teaches entrepreneurship in one of the IIMs said the question given to the students would be: “How do you tell a viewer that you and your firm are different from the episode?”

The professor said, “You have to make a fundamental change and show the audience that you have addressed the issue, and what went wrong in detail and why,” the professor said, who want to be anonymous.

Discussion can also occur on how to convert a sticky position into an opportunity. Sourav Mukherjee said, “One needs to see that talent and client’s funnel will grow for the company in a long time as it is a B2B (business-to-business) firm and not B2C (Business-to-Consumer).

“The class can also discuss how any publicity, though not infamous, is bad,” he said, wrapping it.
