At the dawn of the 2010-2011 academic year, the Interdisciplinary Center
(IDC) Herzliya will be in the midst of implementing the strategic plans for its
future. Over the past sixteen years, our schools and research institutes have
won international recognition while our alumni have taken impressive steps
toward changing the face of Israeli society. We will be building upon these
accomplishments by expanding our academic programs and activities to exciting
new heights.
I believe that an era of renewal is sta rting to take shape within Israeli society.
Joining IDC Herzliya means being part of this fascinating process, which
will infuse a commitment to constitutional and governmental reform as well
as economic growth; will address the challenges presented by new media
technology; and will reevaluate Israels diplomatic strategy and policies as
well as the countrys social and moral agenda all of which a re intrinsic to our
academic mission.

major contributions to
their offerings. Add world-
acclaimed universities and

GLoBAL MBASTudEnTS ClaIM VICToRyIDC team overcomes some 1,500 stdentsfrom all over Israelin national leading bsiness magazine,The Markers Case Stdy Competition.
Members of IDCs winning team stand with Prof. Sarit Markovich and Mr.
Yuval Dovev, Head of the Strategic Management track of the Global MBA,
who advised them on their winning strategy (from left: Ilan Guttman, Yaniv
Nissim, Sarit Markovich, Yuval Dovev and Noam Bernstein)
When Yaniv Nissim, Noam Bernstein and Ilan Guttman, three students in the IDCs Global MBA
Program entered The MarkersCase Study competition, they were in it to win.
The contest, co-sponsored by Entrepreneur Dan David and TASC international consulting rm, invited
MBA students to solve real-life problems posed by four leading Israeli companies. Some 1,500 students
in 416 teams registered for the rst round.
For the rst cut, we were given a general problem to solve, that related to a consumer electronics
company and what it had to do in order to grow its market share, says Nissim. The team, who chose
the name YNG to represent their team, did more than solve the problem at hand - they delivered it in
an exciting visual manner, using graphics to get their message across and win them an extra edge. The
judges were impressed, and YNG moved to the seminals. For next round, the 40 seminalists were
divided amongst the 4 client companies, with YNG assigned to Ba nk Leumi. They met with Bank Leumi
executives, who briefed them on their challenge: Develop a strategy for the bank to enter the eld of
mobile banking.
According to Nissim, Mobile banking is happening around the world, and there are security issues and
psychological barriers, so one of the main things we had to show the bank was an added value that
would motivate users to switch banks or to deepen their relationship with the bank.
The team sailed through seminals, with one more hurdle to go: Final Presentations at the end of
January. To prepare, they debated long and hard on their opening what words and even what
intonation to use.
All that was left was to wait, and at a special event in downtown Tel Aviv, the winners were announced
and the three team members were thrilled to hear that they would be taking home the rst place prize
for Bank Leumi. A second IDC team, with members Ron Levy, Uri Ron and Amir Rapson, took third
place with their solution for Matrix. According to the team, they could never have succeeded without
IDC and their advisors from the Global MBA program.
IDC helped us a lot all along the way, say s Nissim, especially Prof. Sarit Markovich, a Strategy
Professor in the Global MBA Program, a nd Mr. Yuval Dovev, head of the Global Strategy Track of the
Global MBA Program.

When I was looking for a
top tier MBA program, amongother things I was looking for
a diverse program that focused
on broad subjects that would
attract people from very different

With the Global MBA I found
exactly that: a demanding
program with rst rate professors,
a focus on conducting business
in a global environment, and a
diverse group of classmates.

The idea behind the country modules is that ecient and eective business
operation in any market requires thorough knowledge of the context in which
business takes place. The module and study trip therefore introduce students
to the historical, economic, cultural, social and geopolitical circumstances of a
country along with its economic and geopolitical rise. At the end of the module,
students will be familiar with some of the unique features of each country and
develop tools with which to extend their knowledge in the future. The study trip
allows students to fully immerse themselves in the environment and take their
business and cultural understanding to a deeper level.

At the recent 2010 Annual World Economic Forum, members
of The Forum of Young Global Leaders, including Efrat Peled,
Chairperson and CEO of Arison Investments, joined forces
with top tier business schools in an eort to transform the
value system associated with current business practices.
The forum devised a Hippocratic Oath of sorts for MBA
students, by introducing a petition that outlines a
commitment to do no harm and to add value throughout the
practice of business management.
The IDC, Arison School of Business is the rst business school
in Israel to embrace the pledge at an institutional level. Many
MBA students at the IDC who have long been involved with
volunteer activities are eager to unite with other business
schools in supporting and furthering this cause.
