Dear Readers,

Congratulations to those of you who recently graduated. I hope you got the job of your choice. Graduating during this great recession can be a trying ordeal for every kind of major: computer science, economics, journalism; and yes, for you MBAs as well. If you haven't landed a job yet, I have one piece of advice: be really flexible. Also consider buying my book Strategic Case Analysis: Business Concepts, Strategy Frameworks, and Solved Cases as Socratic Dialogs. You can also find a link directly to the Amazon.com page where you can browse sample pages for free.

Since Game Theory is such an important aspect of Competitive Strategy, we have created a whole new section covering this important branch of mathematics, which gets widely applied in business settings now a days. For starters, we have created new web pages devoted to Prisoners' Dilemma, Dominant Strategy, and Maximin Strategy. We will add other strategies which are widely used in competitive business situations in due course. Please feel free to bookmark this page and share it with others; propagation of business knowledge is the one of the two main goals of this portal, helping  displaced business workers  (as well as new graduates) get working again being the other major goal.

The current recession, though intellectually stimulating from a macro-economic perspective, scares me a lot. Consequently, I have a weekly podcast going through a Franteractive publication called FRANCONOMICS.COM. Please feel free to go there and subscribe to the weekly podcast. Also, to the recent graduates, I can only give this piece of positive advice: life is precious, so keep the party going, make new friends,  and don't stop once you land that dream job; help your friends!

If you have any brilliant (or mediocre) ideas on how to improve this portal to make world-wide propagation of ideas and insights propounded here, please bring it to our attention. We also encourage ideas on new content for this portal to make it more comprehensive and robust. Practicing business folks as well as recent MBA grads: please use the form below to communicate with us, and we shall implement your ideas in course of time.

Have a nice July 4th weekend, and a great Summer!

With best wishes,
Sam Mishra
President, Franteractive
